Section 36(b) Violations
Section 36(b) amendment to the Investment Company Act of 1940 imposes a fiduciary duty on mutual fund investment advisors in relation to their compensation and addresses the procedural rules governing mutual fund fee litigation. Violations under 36(b) include charging advisory fees for sub-advisory services that are not in proportion to the services provided.
