A fiduciary financial advisor offers holistic financial planning and investment advice with the primary goal of helping you meet your financial objectives. It can sometimes be difficult to distinguish between fiduciary advisors and persuasive salespeople, but the key difference is that a fiduciary is legally obligated to prioritize your best interests. They are committed to building trust and ensuring your needs come first. In contrast, an advisor who works on commission may be more inclined to recommend products that benefit them more than they benefit you.
Hiring a financial advisor is a big decision and should only be made when it’s the right choice for you. The first step is assessing whether you could benefit from one. Advisors can be especially helpful in situations like starting a business, planning for retirement, or managing family finances.
