What is Advice-Only?
Advice-Only is the Future of Financial Planning
An Advice-Only advisor provides comprehensive financial planning with transparent pricing in a fiduciary capacity at all times and aims to avoid any conflicts of interest.
- Transparent Pricing
No hidden fees from product sales, assets under management (AUM) or expensive investment funds. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying.
- Fiduciary At All Times
Advice-Only advisors are committed to act in the best interest of their clients at all times.
- Empowering Investment Advice
Advice-only advisors can give investment advice without taking custody of your account. Unlike many traditional advisors, Advice-Only advisors don't require you to move your money to them to manage.
- Reduces Conflicts of Interest
Charging only for advice reduces conflicts of interest compared to advisors who are compensated by selling products, receiving commissions, or managing assets.
