ICD fully supports industry and government initiatives that further strengthen the products used by our clients. On January 27, 2010, the SEC voted to adopt several proposals to update Rule 2a-7, the federal regulation that governs SEC-registered money market funds.
Please find on this page Fund Family commentary on these proposals, which ICD will update as they are released. Feel free to contact ICD with questions regarding specific funds or the industry in general.
