Standard of care What it applies to What it requires
Product recommended needs to be suitable for that client
All solicited securities transactions
Due diligence and appropriate investment selection
Advice must be in the client’s best interests
All recommendations where advice provided for a fee —i.e., advisory accounts, financial planning
Mitigate and disclose any conflicts (e.g., Form ADV and client disclosure brochures)
Advice must be in the client’s best interests
All securities & product recommendations for qualified accounts, including IRAs
Conflicts are prohibited unless we comply with all provisions of an exemption (e.g., best interest contract exemption)
SEC Fiduciary Standard
FINRA Suitability Standard
DOL Fiduciary Standard(as of April 10, 2017)
We currently comply with both of these standards
At a high level, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) fiduciary rule expands the definition of a fiduciary standard for retirementaccounts. Today we already operate as a registered investment advisor, acting in the best interest of clients under the existingSEC Fiduciary framework and meeting FINRA Suitability standards. The DOL rule is an additional framework that will make anyone who is compensated for providing advice to qualified accounts an ERISA fiduciary for advice to IRA and 401(k) account holders.

Three standards of care

• The DOL made some improvements to the final rule from the proposal to address input provided by the industry:
– Removal of limitations on recommended products (no more “excluded products”)– No requirement for a Point of Sale “POS” disclosure requirement with 1, 5, and 10 year dollar
estimates– Removal of an Annual Disclosure requirement
• Rule applies to qualified accounts – Both Investment Advisory and Brokerage• DOL will use a phased implementation approach
– Streamlined requirements effective April 10, 2017– Full requirements taking effect on January 1, 2018– Advisor training scheduled throughout the summer and fall
• Additional disclosures and processes will be required

• Our current assumption is that you’ll be able to recommend most of the same products in qualified brokerage accounts
– This includes equities, fixed income, options, annuities, alternative investments, mutual funds, UITs, ETFs/ETNs and structured products
– However we’re still working on the treatment of new issue closed-end funds and new issue preferred stock
– Similar to FINRA’s concept of complex products, the DOL has said that some asset types may be subject to more scrutiny
• Rollovers that are in the client’s best interest are still allowed, but likely with additional requirements.
• The new DOL rule applies to ALL types of financial institutions.

Beginning in January 2017, Ameriprise will transition the mutual fund share classes available for sale in SPS Advantage and in Active Portfolios® investments to advisory shares for both nonqualified and qualified accounts
SPS AdvantageConversion to advisory share classes
• Class A shares for fund families that have advisory selling agreements with Ameriprise will convert to advisory share classes
• This is a non-reportable transaction to the IRS
Rebate of 12b-1 fees • For fund families that do not have advisory selling agreements with Ameriprise, 12b-1 fees on class A shares will be rebated to clients
• This rebate allows clients to still have access to a wide range of investments and ensures comparable client expenses across the product
Product pricing (AFG only) • Online ticket charges will be eliminated. • The SPS Advantage admin fee schedule will be adjusted. The new schedule has not yet been
determined
Active Portfolios®
Conversion to advisory share classes
• Class A shares for fund families that have advisory selling agreements with Ameriprise will convert to advisory share classes
• This is a non-reportable transaction to the IRS
Rebate of 12b-1 fees • Active Portfolios® investments will typically contain advisory share class funds • 12b-1 fees will be rebated to clients if a desired fund is not available in an advisory share class or a
client transfers in a fund that does not match the model and it pays a 12b-1 fee before that fund is liquidated
