| Making the Move from Direct-to-Fund to Brokerage Issue 11, 2010 - More and more, we are seeing investment professionals make the move from direct-to-fund business to brokerage. In a recent conversation with Brendan Sullivan, a Director at Pershing and Manager of its Mutual Fund Operations Department, he noted that, every year for the last seven years, he has seen just over 300,000 mutual fund positions move via the asset movement function in NetX360™ from direct-to-fund to brokerage, with an average of 1,100 to 1,200 positions daily. Why are investment professionals making the move? The initial key driver was an increase in regulatory scrutiny. "The mutual fund world was shaken in 2003-2004 with breakpoint scandals, late trading, market timing, etc.," said Brendan. "Compliance suddenly became a huge ordeal. The brokerage platform will always offer the broker-dealer and its investment professionals a simpler solution from the compliance perspective—in the direct world, it's much more complicated." |
