by Andrew Gluck 3/13/2009 11:23:00 AM
A discussion about the recent decision by Schwab Institutional to require RIAs to move all alternative investment assets off the Schwab custody platform has been added to the agenda for today’s webinar.

Senior executives from the two custodians to which Schwab is referring advisors will be making brief presentations and answering questions at today’s session at 4 p.m. EST.

Tom Anderson, President, CEO and founder of Pensco Trust Company and Jeff Kelley, COO of Sterling Trust Company, will make brief presentations about their respective platforms and deliver an update on the process of transitioning AI assets from Schwab.

Jason Scharfman, a consultant on AI due diligence, our previously scheduled speaker for today’s session , will also offer advisors guidance on how to conduct due diligence of AI assets. He will also speak about ho advisors can provide transparency to assure clients and prospects of their fidelity.

Schwab originally told advisors all AI assets must be transferred by May 1 but changed that position to give advisors more time.
