Abstract:
Temporary rule 206(3)-3T provides investment advisers who are registered with the Commission as broker-dealers relief by establishing an optional, alternative means for them to meet the requirements of section 206(3) of the Advisers Act when they act in a principal capacity in transactions with certain of their advisory clients. The Commission also adopted temporary rule 206(3)-3T to enable fee-based brokerage customers to make an informed choice between fee-based advisory accounts and commission-based brokerage accounts, while continuing to have access to certain securities held in the principal accounts of certain advisory firms. The temporary rule, and its attendant paperwork burdens, will expire and no longer be effective on December 31, 2009
