Investors Speak Out on Legacy of Jack Bogle

A first-of-its-kind opinion survey released by the Institute for the Fiduciary Standard for the ‘Friends of Jack’ reveals Jack Bogle’s principles are fixed in the American mind.

The Friends of Jack (FOJ) is a group of friends and associates of Jack Bogle who formed to help secure and disseminate the Vanguard founder’s legacy. The FOJ sponsored the survey and the Institute for the Fiduciary Standard’s project to advance its mission.

"With the advent of 401(k)s and the decimation of pension plans to ensure financial security in old age, a fiduciary standard is more important than ever. The public needs to be confidant that advisors helping them plan for their retirement years always and only act in their best interest as a fiduciary. I'm happy to endorse organizations such as the Institute for the Fiduciary Standard that promote protections for those who need to secure their financial future."
