Privacy Issues Working Group

The Privacy Issues Working Group consists of the representatives of ICI’s members who handle privacy issues in mutual fund complexes. This is the Group that the ICI will consult with when we review and comment on regulatory proposals relating to privacy that may impact funds and their shareholders. It is also the group that we will notify of such proposals and initiatives.

Note: Issues relating to members’ data security and cyber security concerns are addressed through ICI’s Chief Information Security Officer Advisory Committee, not through the Privacy Issues Working Group. The Working Group’s focus is on regulatory issues relating to privacy.
