FINRA’s website states that Regulation Best Interest, or Reg BI, imposes a "best interest" standard of conduct on broker/dealers and their investment professionals when they make a recommendation to a retail client of any securities transaction, or investment strategy involving securities. When making a recommendation to a retail customer, a broker/dealer must act in the retail customer's best interests and not place its own interests ahead of the customer's interests.
