The RIA’s are so important
In financial advising, only Registered Investment Advisors (RIA) serve in a fiduciary capacity, bound to place your best interest first and clearly disclose any conflicts of interest. This is in contrast to other advisors, such as traditional broker/dealers — these partners need only meet a suitability standard that does not demand concern for the investor’s best interest.
Furthermore, independent RIA’s operate on a fee-only basis and do not use proprietary products, revenue-sharing or trailing-revenue investments, or hidden fees.
Bottom line: Not only do we say we put you first — it’s our duty to, and we take that duty seriously.
Why do you need a financial advisor?
Whether by challenging your personal investment biases or helping you maintain focus on the big picture, a financial advisor brings an important third-party perspective. With an advisor, you can embrace a smarter strategy, accelerate your investment gains, and relax knowing that your financial decisions are informed by strategy and experience.
Benefits of a financial advisor
A good financial advisor will ask questions you haven’t thought of — or ones you don’t really want to ask yourself. With sound planning and a deep understanding of your goals and challenges, you can:
- Understand how to retire with confidence
- Help aging parents or loved ones live comfortably
- Know when to sell your home
- Optimize your liability coverage
- Decide whether to self-insure or purchase long-term care
- Send your kids to college
- Adjust your allocations and investment posture according to the situation
Managing risk in your portfolio
If you’re too close to your investments, you might not see risks developing. Macro-economic trends influence stagnation and growth in various sectors, so too much concentration in one particular stock or sector can wreak havoc on your long-term plan. A financial advisor can help you avoid risk and keep you working toward your goals.
Navigating market volatility
We’ve all heard the saying, “Buy low, sell high.” So why do individuals regularly buy HIGH and sell LOW? A good financial adviser will keep you disciplined during periods of market volatility, preventing the most common mistakes and giving you increased stability — even in unstable times.
