At the end of last year, Congress passed a piece of legislation that addressed, among other things, new broker and consultant disclosure requirements that affect all contracts entered into or renewed Dec. 27, 2021 or after.

In the latest episode, Ed leaves his beloved podcast baby in the safe (safe?) and loving (loving?) hands of Scott and his honorary cohost Rory Kane Akers. Together, Scott and Rory take transparency to a whole new level as they tackle broker and consultant compensation disclosures.
