CRM II

Credit hours are based on self-assessment.
This one day course reviews the Client Relationship Model Phase 2 changes affecting NI 31-103 and IIROC Dealer Member Rules 29, 200 and 3500. CRM II requires dealers and portfolio advisors to provide investment performance reports to their clients every year. Implementation of the performance reports, annual account fee/charge reporting and other disclosure requirements will take place gradually from 2013 through to 2016.

This course is designed to give the participants a clear understanding of how the CRM  Phase 2 rules affect their business in particular with disclosure of fees and performance to clients. We’ll take a practical, hands-on approach to explaining portfolio valuation, the difference between time-weighted and money-weighted performance reporting as well as comparing the CRM2 performance reporting to GIPS.
