Jun 21, 2018 Securities and Exchange Commission To the and Exchange Commission, My retirement portfolio is in the care of a financial advisor who I trust to provide me with the guidance and honesty I need to manage it throughout my retirement years. She also informs me when funds she recommends happen to benefit her branch's parent company. For this service I pay a fair fee, with the understanding that my FA continues to operate in my best interest. Many aren't as fortunate. Worse, they attempt to self-manage their portfolios out of well-deserved distrust of financial advisors. 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, Mr. Chris Bevers
