Form PF is part of a wider series of global regulatory initiatives designed to provide greater disclosure, transparency and responsibility when it comes to how monies are being handled on behalf of investors. On the surface, Form PF may appear to be another very challenging regulatory hurdle for many players. Nevertheless, if approached promptly and effectively, it can present advisers with multiple opportunities. By offering advisers a more detailed view of their relationships with key clients, insights into their risk management and performance strengths and weaknesses, advisors can effectively improve their dealings with existing and prospective investors.

In light of this regulatory mandate, we have published a Form PF industry brief which provides the reader with:

• An overview of the implications of Form PF and associated background
• The opportunities which can be realized by remaining compliant
• A comprehensive view into why data sourcing, collection and verification must remain high on the priority list
