Yesterday, the Forum launched a new online feature exclusive to our members: The Directors' Resource Center. The Directors’ Resource Center is a new component of the Forum’s website (www.mfdf.com) accessible only to Forum members that functions as a convenient reference library containing guidance on key topics, speeches by legislators and regulators, podcasts, official pronouncements, and other resources focused on the needs of fund directors.
The Directors’ Resource Center is designed, not as as static list of links, but as a dynamic, up-to-date reference source, with users having the opportunity to provide input and feedback that will help determine what topics get expanded and what new materials become available. It will serve as a constantly evolving encyclopedia of key topics and issues and a place for Forum members to stay abreast of the latest industry trends and regulatory developments. We will be using Forum News Feed to alert members to new and interesting additions to the Resource Center.

The Directors' Resource Center may be accessed in two ways:
