www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, April 21, 2016 | 28 Real momentum in investors' rights overcoming resistance from financial services industry: Watson continued from p.24 One of the most interesting parts of the report commented on the duty of best interest of the client, stating, "It would also bring regulatory requirements in line with consumer expectations." Several other organizations, both in Canada and the U.S., are also considering investment standards. The U.S. Department of Labor just announced a new fiduciary rule will be implemented by 2018. Investment advisers providing retirement advice will have to put their clients' interests ahead of their own. The Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada is adjusting its regulatory efforts by looking at conflicts of interest resulting on how advisers are paid. The Canadian Securities Administrators will soon publish a paper proposing how the investment industry improves its obligation towards working with clients. There is real momentum that the rights of individual investors will finally overcome the resistance of the financial services industry. Cross your fingers... change is coming. -- Submitted by Peter Watson, MBA, CFP , R.F .P ., CIM, FCSI., Certified Financial Planner NOTICE OF ROAD CLOSURE Sandwell Drive at the intersection with Lakeshore Road West for trunk wastewater main installation Town of Oakville NOTICE OF CONSTRUCTION Watermain & wastewater main installation along Sixth Line Town of Oakville Closure start date: Closure end date: Project number: Project Manager: April 25, 2016 October 1, 2016 PR-2869 Mark Bajor, C.E.T. 905-825-6000 ext. 7617 mark.bajor@halton.ca Please follow detour route.
