Background
On October 24, the ICI’s Dealer Resignation Working Group released their findings in a white paper: “Operational Process Flows and Considerations Related to Dealer/Custodian Resignations in Response to the Fiduciary Rule.”
Under DOL’s new definitions, many Broker Dealers have determined that accounts that meet certain criteria can no longer be supported by their platform under the DOL fiduciary standards. The anticipated high volume of account resignations anticipated will require efficient processing. The ICI Dealer Resignation Working Group’s white paper outlined the anticipated use cases and how to best address each.
