FINRA states that under the care obligations, investment advisors, broker/dealers, and their financial professionals need to understand the investments and investment strategies on which they provide advice and recommendations before advising on or recommending them to retail investors. This includes developing a sufficient understanding of the potential risks, rewards, and costs of the investment or investment strategy to have a reasonable basis to believe that the recommendation or advice could be in a retail investor’s best interest.
