Recently, he had an op-ed published (his second) in Barron’s on the need for mutual fund companies to designate a shareholder advocate to ensure that shareholders’ interests are represented and protected. Almost all of the articles on this site were written by Epstein. (The original name of The Progressive Investor was Mutual Fund Reform.com)
