Securities need a more standardised labelling procedure Securities research firm Morningstar has proposed that all managed products sold to investors should have increased and equivalent disclosure standards. The push comes as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) attempts to introduce increased disclosure for mutual funds. In a comment letter sent to the regulator, Morningstar expressed its support for adding transparency and comparability to the mutual fund market by changing the ways securities are labelled, and creating standard metrics for calculating common investor considerations like duration.
