UPDATE: SEC Aims to Ensure Cybersecurity Preparedness (September 2015)
On Sept. 15, the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations (OCIE) issued another in a series of National Exam Program Risk Alerts, on OCIE’s 2015 Cybersecurity Examination Initiative. This follows up on the Apr. 15, 2014 Risk Alert launching its cybersecurity preparedness initiative. In the Sept. 15 Risk Alert, OCIE provide additional information on the areas of focus for OCIE’s second round of cybersecurity examinations, which will involve more testing to assess implementation of firm procedures and controls, identifying the following areas for examination: firm governance and risk assessments relating to cybersecurity, controls on access rights, data loss prevention, vendor management, training and incident response.

UPDATE: AICPA Guidance on Holding Out as “Fee-Only” (June 2015)
Fee-only advisers are compensated only by the fees charged directly to their clients and not via the sale of financial products. Fee-only compensation includes hourly, fixed, flat project-fee basis, retainer or percentage fees based on assets under management. 

It was recently highlighted that several of the firms identified in CNBC’s “Top 100 Fee-Only Wealth Management Firms” share in insurance commissions, own an insurance agency, or are under common ownership alongside an insurance affiliate to which advisory clients are referred.

Importantly, an AICPA member would be in violation of the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct’s “Advertising and Other Forms of Solicitation Rule” [1.600.001] if the member’s promotional efforts are false, misleading, or deceptive. Holding out as “fee-only,” but not acting as such would be a violation of the code of conduct and could result in an ethics investigation. State boards of accountancy have similar rules in place. Additionally, the Statement on Standards in PFP Services requires full transparency on how members are compensated [para. 22 and 23].

UPDATE: NASAA Releases Model Rule on Business Continuity and Succession Planning  (April 2015)
The North American Securities Administrators Association recently approved a model rule requiring advisers to plan for how to keep their practices going in the event of a natural disaster or the death of an executive.

UPDATE: Achieving a Better Life Experience Act - ABLE Act of 2014 (December 2014)
On December 19, 2014, the Achieving a Better Life Experience Act (ABLE Act of 2014) was signed into law. The vote concluded a campaign that first began in 2006 to approve the use of tax-free savings accounts for individuals with disabilities to cover expenses not covered by government sponsored programs. The ABLE Act allows for those with disabilities to have a supplemental source of income beyond those provided by governmental programs, such as Medicaid and social security. The passage of the ABLE Act is significant given that the National Disability Institute estimates that there are 58 million individuals with disabilities in the United States.

WealthCounsel, ElderCounsel, and its authors, Jeremiah Barlow, JD and Stephen Dale, JD, LLM share a whitepaper outlining what the ABLE Act of 2014 accomplishes, its significance, eligibility, when the accounts will be available, and what this means from a planning perspective and more.

UPDATE: SEC Issues Guidance on Advisers' Use of Social Media Testimonials (March 2014)
The SEC issued Guidance Update 2014-4, which provides guidance concerning RIAs’ use of social media and their publication of advertisements that feature public commentary about them that appears on independent, third-party social media sites.

The guidance allows advisers to feature public testimonials from third party social media sites on their own websites, as long as all testimonials are included. The staff of the Division of Investment Management has defined “testimonial” as a “statement of a client’s experience with, or endorsement of, an investment adviser,” which includes positive and negative experiences.

Further, advisers who direct clients to their social media sites (e.g., advertisements that say “Check us out on Facebook!”) will not be deemed as soliciting testimonials from clients. Lists of friends/contacts/followers on social media will not be construed as testimonials or endorsements, provided that they are not grouped or listed as current or past clients and the adviser does not create the inference that these contacts have experienced favorable results.

The guidance also covers social media fan pages created by third-parties. The SEC strongly cautions advisers that such sites may be viewed as testimonials if the adviser has a material connection to the page and/or is not deemed independent. Read additional commentary on the new guidance from Michael Kitces.

ADVOCACY: Fewer Types of Retirement Plans and Simpler Rules Would Help Small Business Owners (October 2013)
Congress should consolidate and simplify the types of tax-favored retirement plans now available to small business owners in order to minimize the cost and administrative burden imposed by the plans, the AICPA said in written testimony submitted for the record of the House Small Business Committee’s Oct. 2 hearing entitled The Challenge of Retirement Savings for Small Employers.

Jeffery Porter, chair of the AICPA Tax Executive Committee, identified the following possible measures for simplifying the number and complexity of the various types of retirement plans in the testimony:

• Create a uniform employee contributory deferral type plan.
• Eliminate the nondiscrimination tests based on employee pre-tax and Roth deferrals for 401(k) plans.
• Create a uniform rule regarding the determination of basis in distributions.
• Create a uniform rule of attribution.
• Create a uniform definition for terms to define owners.
• Eliminate the required minimum distribution rules.
• Create uniform rules for early withdrawal penalties.

UPDATE: FinCEN Makes FBAR Changes, Provides New E-Filing Form and Info (August 2013)
To facilitate the e-filing of FBARs, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network has released a new FBAR e-filing authorization form.  The new form, FinCEN Form 114a, Record of Authorization to Electronically File FBARs, is to be used by filers who submit FBARs jointly with their spouses, or through third-party preparers.  The form should not be filed with the FBAR but copies of it must be maintained by both the filer and the account holder and made available upon request by FinCEN or the IRS.  FinCEN also announced changes to their originally issued BSA Electronic Filing Requirements For Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FinCEN Report 114), which details the requirements for the e-filing of FBARs. 

UPDATE: Financial Crimes Enforcement Network Extends FBAR Filing Date for Select Filers (December 2012)
On Dec. 26, 2012, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FINCEN) issued Notice 2012-2, which further extends the due date for filing the Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR), form TD F 90-22.1, from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014 for select filers.  The additional time extends both to certain individuals and employees or officers of investment advisers registered with the SEC who have signature authority over but no financial interest in one or more foreign financial accounts.

UPDATE: IRS Announces Third Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (January 2012)
On January 9, the IRS reopened the offshore voluntary disclosure program to help people with unreported offshore accounts get current with their taxes. The IRS also announced the collection of more than $4.4 billion so far from the two previous international disclosure programs.

The program is similar to the 2011 program in many ways, but with a few key differences. Unlike last year, there is no set deadline for people to apply.  However, the terms of the program could change at any time going forward.  For example, the IRS may increase penalties in the program for all or some taxpayers or defined classes of taxpayers – or decide to end the program entirely at any point. The overall penalty structure for the new program is the same for 2011, except for taxpayers in the highest penalty category. Visit IRS for more information.

UPDATE: SEC Issues Risk Alert on Investment Adviser Use of Social Media (January 2012)
On January 4, 2012, the staff of the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations issued a National Examination Risk Alert, which provides staff observations based on a review of investment advisers of varying sizes and strategies that use social media. In growing numbers, registered investment adviser firms are using social media to communicate with existing and potential clients, promote services, educate investors, and recruit new employees.

“As investment advisers increasingly utilize social media to communicate with clients and potential clients, firms need to be mindful of the applicable standards governing those communications,” said Carlo di Florio, Director of the Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations (OCIE).

The alert reviews concerns that may arise from use of social media by firms and their associated persons, and offers suggestions for complying with the antifraud, compliance, and record keeping provisions of the federal securities laws. The alert notes that firms should consider how to implement new compliance programs or revisit their existing programs in the face of rapidly changing technology.

UPDATE: Additional Extension Until September 9th for Various OVDI and Certain Other Filings Previously Due August 31, 2011 (August 2011)
Due to Hurricane Irene, the IRS announced that it has extended the deadline for the 2011 Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Initiative (OVDI) filing to Friday, September 9, 2011 (from August 31, 2011). The IRS further announced that the September 9, 2011 extended due date will also apply to certain late filed information returns that are officially excluded from the OVDI, but that are permitted to be filed without late filing penalties per the IRS’s OVDI’s Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) numbers 17 and 18.  For more information, see AICPA’s OVDI resource page.

UPDATE: Treasury and IRS Issue Guidance Outlining Phased Implementation of FATCA Beginning in 2013 (July 2011)
On July 14th, the Treasury Department and the IRS issued a notice announcing plans to phase in the requirements of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA).  The new law targets noncompliance by U.S. taxpayers through foreign accounts.  Under the notice’s phased implementation approach, foreign financial institutions and U.S. withholding agents are given adequate time to build the systems needed to fully comply with FATCA.  Read Notice 2011-53.

ADVOCACY: Clarification Requested on FBAR (July 2011)

UPDATE: SEC Model Privacy Form (April 2011)
In December 2009, the SEC and seven other federal agencies published final amendments to their rules that implement the privacy provisions of Subtitle A of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. These rules require financial institutions to provide initial and annual privacy notices to their clients. The Agencies adopted a model privacy form along with Sample Clauses that financial institutions (including registered advisers) may rely on as a safe harbor to provide disclosures under the privacy rules.

ADVOCACY: AICPA Weighs in on Foreign Trust & HIRE Act (March 2011)

UPDATE: SEC’s Pay to Play Rules (March 2011)
The SEC’s new "pay to play" rules for investment advisers took effect on March 14, 2011 and FAQs were released by the SEC last week. Pay to play is the practice of making campaign contributions and related payments to elected officials in order to influence the awarding of lucrative contracts for the management of public pension plan assets and similar government investment accounts. The rule adopted by the SEC last summer includes prohibitions intended to capture not only direct political contributions by investment advisers, but also other ways that advisers may engage in pay to play arrangements.

The new SEC rule has three key elements:

1. It prohibits an investment adviser from providing advisory services for compensation — either directly or through a pooled investment vehicle — for two years, if the adviser or certain of its executives or employees make a political contribution to an elected official who is in a position to influence the selection of the adviser.
2. It prohibits an advisory firm and certain executives and employees from soliciting or coordinating campaign contributions from others — a practice referred to as "bundling" — for an elected official who is in a position to influence the selection of the adviser. It also prohibits solicitation and coordination of payments to political parties in the state or locality where the adviser is seeking business.
3. It prohibits an adviser from paying a third party, such as a solicitor or placement agent, to solicit a government client on behalf of the investment adviser, unless that third party is an SEC-registered investment adviser or broker-dealer subject to similar pay to play restrictions. Compliance with this requirement goes into effect on September 13, 2011.

Investment advisers subject to the new rule (those with clients who are government entities) must begin to maintain records of all persons who are covered associates under the rule and keep records of political contributions they make on and after that date. Advisers must also make and keep a record of all government entities that they provide advisory services to on and after March 14, 2011. Advisers are not, however, required to look back for the five years prior to the effective date to identify former government clients. Advisers that pay regulated persons to solicit government entities for advisory services on their behalf must make and keep a list of those persons beginning on and after September 13, 2011. Click here for the full rule.

UPDATE: SEC Compliance Date Extension of Part 2B of Form ADV (January 2011)
On December 28^th, the SEC extended the compliance date for Part 2B of Form ADV, the brochure supplement, and for certain rule provisions that relate to the delivery of brochure supplements. The SEC extended the compliance date generally for 4 months to provide certain investment advisers additional time to design, test and implement systems and controls to satisfy their obligations to prepare and deliver brochure supplements. Note that the extended compliance date does not affect the delivery of Part 2A, which must be delivered to existing clients by May 30 for advisers with a December 31 fiscal year end.  The new ADV must still be filed with the SEC by March 31. Click here to read more.

UPDATE: CPA & PFS Descriptions for Part 2B of Form ADV (January 2011) 
Recent amendments to Part 2B of Form ADV require advisers to prepare narrative brochures written in plain English which contain, among other things, information on the educational and business background of management and key advisory personnel of the adviser.  The SEC permits, but does not require, advisers to list the professional designations held by such persons.  SEC instructions require, however, that any listing of professional designations held must provide a sufficient explanation of the minimum qualifications required for the designation to allow clients and potential clients to understand the value of the designation.

To assist you in completing Part 2B of Form ADV, the AICPA has written descriptions of both the CPA and PFS designations. These descriptions are provided by the AICPA as guidance to its members who choose to list their professional designations on Part 2B of Form ADV, the uniform form used by investment advisers to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  Listing the CPA license and/or the PFS credential, and the descriptions thereof is optional and is solely at the discretion of the individual licensee and/or credential holder.

ADVOCACY: Foreign Bank Account Reporting  (November 2010)

UPDATE: New Form ADV Part 2 (October 2010)
New SEC regulations effective October 12th require investment advisers to use a new Form ADV, Part 2, which includes supplemental information not previously required in the current “check-the-box” format. New investment advisers filing with the SEC after January 1st, 2011 must use the new form. Existing advisers with a calendar year-end must file the new Part 2 by March 31st, 2011. Within 60 days from filing, advisers must deliver to its existing clients the brochure and brochure supplement that meet the requirements of the amended ADV.

Form ADV, Part 2 explains to the investor an investment adviser’s qualifications, investment strategies, and business practices. The current form requires advisers to respond to a series of multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions organized in a “check-the-box” format. The new form is in a more narrative format, which requires expanded content, greater disclosure and discussion of conflicts of interest and mitigation of those conflicts, and supplements. Furthermore, the forms must be filed electronically with the SEC so they are more accessible by investors. 

If advisers choose to list their professional designations on the form, they must include information about the minimum qualifications necessary to earn and maintain the credential. If the adviser loses a designation for reasons other than non-payment of dues, they must disclose the circumstances of the event. We will provide a description of both the CPA and PFS to use on the new form in a later issue of PFP News.

Contact your attorney or compliance advisor to ensure you meet the new requirements, including those for state registered advisers. For more information on the new ADV Part 2, click here. Read the final rule on amendments to Form ADV Part 2 here.
