Requirements for Investment Advisers that Pay Others to Solicit New Clients You On Here » Requirements for Investment Advisers that Pay Others to Solicit New Clients

Registered investment advisers may pay cash compensation to others to seek out new clients on their behalf, commonly called “solicitors” or “finders,” if they meet certain conditions (under Rule 206(4)-3 of the Advisers Act):

The solicitor is not subject to certain disciplinary actions.

The fee is paid pursuant to a written agreement to which you are a party and (with limited exceptions) the agreement must: describe the solicitor’s activities and compensation arrangement; require that the solicitor perform the duties you assign and in compliance with the Advisers Act; require the solicitor to provide clients with a current copy of your disclosure document; and, if seeking clients for personalized advisory services, require the solicitor to provide clients with a separate written disclosure document containing specific information.

You receive from the solicited client, prior to or at the time you enter into an agreement, a signed and dated notice confirming that he/she was provided with your disclosure document and, if required, the solicitor’s disclosure document.

You have a reasonable basis for believing that the solicitor has complied with the terms of your agreement.
