Mutual Banks Enter Mutual Fund Field Amid Legal Turbulence
The Fund for Mutual Depositors begins selling through 65 savings banks in nine states starting August 4. The new fund faces scrutiny over regulatory risks and potential lawsuits tied to existing rules on commercial banks offering commingled accounts. Industry leaders note registration requirements for prospectus handouts and consider potential conflicts with the Securities Act of 1933. Smith, Barney & Co. acts as adviser with fees offset by commissions, a move that could reignite debates about mutual fund access to the Big Board and broker rebates.
