The holiday season is the time for financial advisors to offer special thanks to clients, employees and others for their loyalty. A gift is a good way to do this.
The gift doesn’t have to be expensive, but it should be thoughtfully chosen, with a touch of elegance befitting the tastes and interests of each recipient.
As with most other tasks in an advisor's business, there are regulatory considerations. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority prohibits registered representatives from giving gifts — including tangible items and event tickets — worth more than $100. A plan to raise that limit to $300 is awaiting approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The accompanying gallery presents ThinkAdvisor’s 10 gift ideas, all costing less than $100.
