If adopted, the amendments to Rule 206(4)-1 (the Advertising Rule), which has not changed substantively since its adoption in 1961, would modernize the regulation of adviser advertising to account for technological developments, changing investor profiles and consumer habits by, for instance, permitting the use of testimonials and endorsements and third-party ratings, subject to certain conditions, and, in general, replacing broadly drawn limitations with a principles-based approach.
