Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a financial advisor “trusted”?
A trusted financial advisor typically earns positive client feedback over time, operates transparently, and clearly explains how they’re compensated. On Wealthtender, trust is reflected through Certified Advisor Reviews™ that combine insights into the client experience and character of advisors with important disclosures about each reviewer to ensure you gain the transparency you deserve when your life savings could be at stake.

Financial advisors and wealth management firms that consistently receive superior client reviews can also qualify for Wealthtender’s Voice of the Client Awards™ designed to recognize America’s most trusted advisors. Learn More About Wealthtender Voice of the Client Awards™
What are Certified Advisor Reviews™?
Certified Advisor Reviews™ from Wealthtender help consumers make smarter hiring decisions when choosing a financial advisor.

Clients and other individuals can submit reviews for financial advisors and wealth management firms that have turned on the reviews feature. Before each review is publicly displayed, financial advisors agree to disclose important information about their relationship with the reviewer to ensure consumers gain the transparency they deserve when their life savings could be at stake. These disclosures also help financial advisors satisfy compliance with industry regulations.

After financial advisors provide the required disclosures, Wealthtender publishes the review with the Certified Advisor Review™ mark. Learn More About Certified Advisor Reviews™
Can I find fiduciary financial advisors on Wealthtender?
Yes, you’ll find hundreds of fiduciary financial advisors on Wealthtender. Fiduciary financial advisors must act in their clients’ best interest. Before hiring an advisor, always ask if they will act in your best interest as a fiduciary.

For example, financial advisors who have earned their Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation are fiduciaries.

Can I find fee-only financial advisors on Wealthtender?
Yes, you’ll find hundreds of fee-only financial advisors on Wealthtender. Fee-only financial advisors are paid directly by their clients. Since they aren’t compensated based on the products and services they recommend (e.g., commissions), their compensation model helps reduce potential conflicts of interest.

When viewing financial advisor profiles on Wealthtender, look for the Compensation Methods section that shows ways each financial advisor can be paid for their services, including if they offer fee-only financial planning services. Learn More About Fee-Only Financial Advisors

Is a Virtual Financial Advisor Right for You?

Most financial advisors began meeting with their clients online when the global pandemic kept most people at home.

Even before COVID-19, many financial advisors offered their services virtually to clients by Zoom or phone no matter where they live.

Today, as financial advisors and their clients alike have grown accustomed to meeting face to face on Zoom calls, you may find it’s easier and more convenient to work with a financial advisor online from the comfort of your own home (or wherever life takes you).

Of course, location is still a factor to consider when hiring a financial advisor. And you may find a great financial advisor who lives near you. But now that location is no longer the primary factor, you’re free to explore hiring a financial advisor who specializes in serving clients just like you, even if they live hundreds of miles away.

What is a Specialist Financial Advisor?

An increasing trend among financial advisors is to focus their services around a particular area of specialization, or niche, to stand apart from advisors offering general investment advice and planning services.

Many financial advisors now specialize in working only with clients in a particular occupation (e.g. technology workers, business owners, educators), or whose family priorities require specialized attention (e.g. special needs children, college funding). You’ll also find advisors who specialize in working with immigrants, others with a religious focus or emphasis on lifestyle interests that require unique financial planning needs like retiring early or traveling the world.

Wealthtender is dedicated to helping you find the best financial advisor for your individual needs based on what’s most important to you, no matter where you or your advisor chooses to live.

What are the Benefits of Hiring a Specialist Advisor?

By choosing to work with a financial advisor dedicated to a particular niche, you’re gaining access to a specialist committed to understanding the unique financial planning challenges and opportunities of people just like you.

Many financial advisors choose to specialize in areas that affect their own lives personally or that they’re passionate about based on their interests and life experience.

And by working with a financial advisor who specializes in an area important to you, you’re likely joining a community of other people who choose to work with the same financial advisor for similar reasons to your own. Your financial advisor may find opportunities to bring you together if connecting you with other people who share your interests is valuable to you.

Can I find fiduciary financial advisors on Wealthtender?

Yes, you’ll find hundreds of fiduciary financial advisors on Wealthtender. Fiduciary financial advisors must recommend the best investment solutions for their clients. It is not enough that a product is simply “suitable.” A higher standard applies to a fiduciary advisor.

Before you hire an advisor, you should ask explicitly if they will always act in your best interest as a fiduciary. (Learn the right questions to ask a financial advisor before choosing who you hire.)

It’s easy to find fiduciary financial advisors on Wealthtender.

Financial advisors who have earned their Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation are fiduciaries. To hold themselves out as a CFP, these credential holders must acknowledge they will adhere to the CFP Board’s Code of Ethics and Standards of Conduct and act as a fiduciary when providing financial advice to their clients.

Financial advisors who are NAPFA members are fiduciary financial advisors. NAPFA is an abbreviation for the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors, a member organization comprised of fee-only fiduciaries complying with a strict code that is comprehensive, client-centered, and demonstrates competence.

Another option to consider is visiting the primary Wealthtender financial advisor directory and entering the word ‘fiduciary’ in the search bar. After you have selected any additional filters important to you, submit your search request and the results will include only financial advisors whose profiles mention the word ‘fiduciary’. At this stage of your research, you should evaluate what the advisor profile says about their fiduciary status.
