On this week’s Masters in Business radio podcast, I speak with Attorney and Professor Ron Rhoades of Western Kentucky University. Rhoades is an expert on regulations of asset management firms. He has been a zealous advocate for the Fiduciary Standard, and frequently testifies to Congress, the SEC, Department of Labor, FINRA, etc.
Our discussion ranged from basics of what the Fiduciary standard is to the ethics of how asset management firms should be run.
