Abstract

The trade association for the mutual fund industry, the Investment Company Institute, is unique in several respects. First, membership in the association is almost universal; just about every sponsor of mutual funds, closed-end funds, unit investment trusts, and exchange-traded funds, as well as the funds themselves, are members. This permits the Institute to “speak with one voice” on behalf of the entire investment company industry. Second, the Institute has a long history of supporting government regulation of the industry in the interest of investors. Third, the Institute has adopted a series of “best practices” that go well beyond law and regulation.
