Edward Jones Charitable Gift Fund _____________________________________________________________________________ EJCGF Tips & Best Practices 1. FA Userid/Password If the FA is setting up a DAF account for themselves, they must: --set up a record as a client (Donor/Grant Advisor (Client)) using their personal information and personal email address, and --a separate record as a Financial Advisor using their Jones branch address and @edwardjones.com email address.
If the FA uses their @edwardjones.com email address in their client record, the userid/password will be linked behind the scenes and will cause an error upon login. This requires manual intervention from Renaissance to reconstruct the userid/password.
Include Edward Jones Account Number – Setting up the Contribution During Step 3 – Initial Contribution, include the Edward Jones Account number the DAF account will be using to make the contribution. Without this number, manual research must be performed to identify the Jones account. This will cause delays. 3. For Each DAF Account Opened – Send Email to Add BOA In order for the BOA to gain access to a DAF account, an email must be sent to edjonesdaf@reninc.com. This step must be followed for EACH DAF account opened. 4. A Signature is Not Required to open an EJCGF Account The transaction (within TaSC) to transfer the assets to the EJCGF account will serve as the signature for the EJCGF account opening.
EJCGF Risk Tolerance Questionnaire The EJCGF risk tolerance questionnaire (RTQ) is different than the existing RTQ because the Renaissance Philanthropic Solutions Group (RenPSG) is a separate legal entity. It will have its own distinct risk tolerance that may or may not be the same as the client's RTQ. Having the client fill out the RTQ specific for their contribution is recommended but not required.
