“Overturning the SEC ‘Broker Dealer Rule’ - What to Expect Going Forward,” 2008 fi360 National Conference
5/8/2008
RDB partner Merril Hirsh and Financial Planning Association Managing Director Duane Thompson led the opening keynote session at the 2008 fi360 National Conference on May 8, 2008. In this session, they discussed the overturning of the SEC “broker dealer rule” and what can be expected going forward.
Leading a team of RDB attorneys, Mr. Hirsh successfully represented the FPA in its victory in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in 2007. This victory, vacating the Securities and Exchange Commission’s fee-based brokerage account rule, has significant importance for the financial planning industry.
