Why Select a RIA?
As a Registered Investment Advisor, we are legally and ethically obligated as a fiduciary to do what is right for our clients at all times.
In contrast, brokers, registered representatives and other financial sales people generally are not fiduciaries to their customers and do not have this same obligation.
As a fee-only Advisor, we can act in our clients best interests at all times because we are completely independent and receive no other financial benefit of any kind.
In contrast, brokerage firms' revenues may increase even if the customers' assets shrink.
As a Registered Investment Advisor, we cannot trade with our client as principal.
Brokerage firms often earn significant profits by trading as principal with their customers.
Because many independent advisors are entrepreneurial business owners - the buck stops with them - so to speak. Because of this, they share a strong sense of personal accountability to their clients.
