In plain English
FINRA is changing its rules to let certain investment pools buy and trade shares of newly public companies without the normal restrictions that regular investors have to follow. If your retirement savings or employee benefits are in a collective trust fund, ask your financial advisor whether this change affects how your money gets invested in new stock offerings.
