A year after state regulators began cracking down on senior-specific designations with a model rule to protect the country's seniors, about 50% of US states have produced their own protections to establish professional standards. Last September, New Jersey Gov Jon S. Corzine signed the Predatory Annuities Prevention Act designed to "protect vulnerable consumers from predatory annuity sales," according to a state-issued press release. The bill is based on three national model regulations that the release says "comprehensively address issues regarding the marketing of annuities, particularly to senior citizens."

WASHINGTON (HedgeWorld.com) - Sixteen months after the Securities and Exchange Commission voted 3 to 2 to adopt new rules requiring most hedge fund managers to register as investment advisers, the two dissenters are still showing signs of frustration with the way things turned out.
Paul S. Atkins, speaking on Feb. 28 to a conference of investment professionals put on by the Investment Adviser Association and the weekly IA Week newsletter, said the SEC is discovering just how much work is involved in requiring thousands of additional fund managers to register. According to a transcript of the speech, he said that despite a shift by the SEC's Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations from a regular five-year exam cycle to a risk-based monitoring approach, the influx of adviser reg...
