To the and Exchange Commission,

Can it be true, in an era where we expect individuals to manage their
own retirement savings, that " Caveat emptor" is the best we can do?
Not everyone one can be a financial expert, therefore, financial
advisers should be providing the best advice for the client - NOT the
advice that is in their personal interest.

I'm counting on you to make a stronger rule that closes the loophole.
Americans who've worked hard to save for retirement deserve peace of
mind about their financial security.

Sincerely,

Ms. Pat Dugan
