The service of accountants providing letters to underwriters developed following enactment of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").

Accordingly, the ethics committee proposes a revision of the existing pronouncements that, in effect, will prohibit a member or a member's firm from having a loan to or from a client. However, the following loans will be grandfathered under the proposed revision: fully secured mortgage loans (including …
