This huge bound book that I receive is not being utilized for the energy that it took to produce it. Also, not all the information pertains to me. Total waste.

God bless you, Chris Cox, for this! Of course, with the summary, should be (and I think is) the offer of a more in-depth look at the investments, if the investor wants it or needs it. <br />Summaries do help save paper, but the never-ending hullaballoo about paper is really quite unneccessary, because trees are a renewable resource when managed well. Pure wastefulness is not acceptable, of course, no matter how abundant a resource is. But, summaries of prospectuses should not be considered wasteful. It is in the court of the investor to decide if he wants to read them or not, but the companies should continue to provide them unless the investor simply wishes to opt out (not recommended!), but again, this should be his/her choice, if possible.Susan H.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21166579.post-76792615405310637412009-12-24T22:55:20.637-05:002009-12-24T22:55:20.637-05:00Jeff, it is mutual fund companies’ responsibility ...Jeff, it is mutual fund companies’ responsibility to provide financial details in prospectuses/reports; regardless how many investors actually pay attention to them. I think SEC should require mutual fund companies to disclose the information. Investors have the choice of receiving prospectuses/reports either by mail or electronically. If they are concerned about the waste, they should sign up for e-delivery.jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16322598747550902356noreply@blogger.com
