I support greater regulation and restrictions on retail investment in complexed investment vehicles. Whether it's FINRA, SEC or some other SRO, I think it would be helpful if retail investors were required to undergo some sort of certification or training process to verify their understanding of the risk involved with trading risky assets.
If I had to choose which instruments would

Leveraged funds are vital to responsible management of my family's investments. I've been tasked to safeguard our family monies and this responsibility has taken on extra urgency since my father died and my mother experienced a major stroke.
