“Edward Jones agreed, without admitting any wrongdoing, to a $75 million regulatory settlement with the SEC for allegedly failing to disclose that it received tens of millions of dollars from preferred mutual fund partners each year on top of commissions and other fees. Investors shouldn’t need to worry that they’re getting fleeced by the very person who’s being paid to advise them. Investors are at greater risk of being taken advantage of when their advisor is not required to put them first, has strong economic incentives to generate fees, and doesn’t need to disclose those conflicts of interest in a particularly clear way.”
