Questions about the advisor workflow

View all FAQs
How does a client need move from an idea to an individual CUSIP?

The advisor identifies the client responsibility and constraints, the proposed desk translates them into a term specification, and eligible issuers may be asked to provide competing economics. The selected note would then be documented and delivered to the approved custodian. Suitability, consent, supervision, and offering review remain required before execution.

Which partnership roles need to be documented?

The agreement should identify responsibility for advice, recommendations, communications, due diligence, best execution, custody, valuation, billing, surveillance, complaints, recordkeeping, and ongoing client service. Compensation, conflicts, data sharing, and termination procedures also require approval. No public description should go beyond the final legal and compliance framework.
