A 'trusted contact' is someone whom the firm would be authorized to contact if they had a concern about the activity in a client’s account (e.g., concerns about diminished mental capacity, elder financial abuse, etc.) and were unable to get in touch with (or cannot discuss with) the client themselves. It is a potentially important tool in protecting seniors and other potentially vulnerable individuals from abuse and financial fraud. Regulators have only asked that financial professionals request that information from clients. We believe a better practice would be to receive that information.

What are cookies? Are they safe to approve? Ever go into another website and see ads of the items you were browsing while shopping pop up? Creepy? Like Big Brother is not only watching but remembering you and your activities? Well, cookies are inherently harmless. They are files created by websites to save your browsing information making your online experience easier. They remember your sign-in and your preferences. “It’s what companies and websites do with cookies versus what people think they do, in terms of tracking, that has given cookies a bad reputation,” says tech and cybersecurity expert, Chuck Brooks. If you find cookies to be a nuisance or are highly concerned about your privacy, there are steps you can take to limit or eliminate cookies by deleting your browsing history each time (can be a total pain) or added software that can select through cookies.
