FSI Applauds House’s Passage of Senior Safe Act
Today, Financial Services Institute (FSI) President & CEO Dale Brown released the following statement regarding the U.S. House of Representatives’ passage of the Senior Safe Act as part of S. 2155, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act:
“We applaud the House for taking a significant step forward in the prevention of elder financial abuse by passing the Senior Safe Act today. Financial advisors and financial services firms are often the first to detect possible financial abuse, so it is critical that they have proper training to identify potential abuse as well as the ability to report it without fear of violating privacy laws. We strongly urge President Trump to sign this important legislation into law in a timely manner to help further protect our nation’s seniors from financial abuse.”
