Fiduciary Essentials for Stewards:Seven Principles Every Fiduciary Must Know |
Overview
A fiduciary manages the assets of another person and is required by law to always act in the best interests of his/her client, beneficiary, or retirement plan participant. Yet many fiduciaries are not aware of their duties and responsibilities, let alone educated on how to fulfil those duties to the standard of care required by law.
Fiduciary Essentials™ for Investment Stewards instructs trustees, investment committee members, advisors, attorneys and accountants on how they can improve their fiduciary services and minimize liability.
Training
The FIDUCIARY ESSENTIALS™ Training Program is a one day classroom-based course, designed by fi360®, which covers all of the components of a comprehensive investment process and related standards of care. Successful completion of the program is recognized by the awarding of a Certificate of Completion and allows participants to apply for membership to the Fiduciary Academy ™.
