The compliance guidelines regarding notice periods for changes to an account are established to ensure that customers have sufficient time to review and respond to such changes. Typically, a standard notice period is 30 days, which allows clients ample opportunity to address any potential issues or inquiries they may have.

In this context, a notice given 15 days prior to the changes would not provide sufficient time for clients to take action. The 30-day notice period is compliant with regulatory requirements, providing reassurance to clients and maintaining their rights to be informed and involved in managing their accounts.

Longer notice periods, such as 45 days or 90 days, can provide even more assurance to clients, though they are often not necessary for standard changes and may not be mandated. In summary, providing notice only 15 days in advance would be inadequate and therefore not compliant with the acceptable standards for account change notifications.
