Introduced·3/27/25

Financial Exploitation Prevention Act of 2025 allows postponement of security redemptions to prevent exploitation of specified adults.

The Financial Exploitation Prevention Act of 2025 amends the Investment Company Act of 1940 to allow registered open-end investment companies and transfer agents to postpone the redemption of securities for up to 15 business days if they reasonably believe financial exploitation of a specified adult is involved. A specified adult is defined as an individual age 65 or older, or an adult with a mental or physical impairment that prevents them from protecting their own interests.
