The Fee-Only Fiduciary Difference
Fee-only fiduciary financial planners receive compensation solely from the fees clients pay for their services. They do not earn commissions for recommending certain products. Fee-only fiduciaries are obligated to provide advice that is in the best interest of the client. We choose to act as fee-only fiduciaries because we believe it is the ideal business model for serving clients, as it helps ensure our interests are aligned with yours.
