This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation.

In this episode you will learn: - The three core suitability obligations: reasonable-basis, customer-specific, and quantitative suitability. - How Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI) establishes a higher standard of conduct than traditional suitability. - The four key obligations of Reg BI: Care, Disclosure, Conflict of Interest, and Compliance. - How to spot common exam traps where a recommended product is legitimate but unsuitable for a client's specific profile. - That suitability and best interest standards apply to recommendations to hold a security, not just to buy or sell.
