How to choose a financial advisor in Arthur

Verify that the advisor is registered with the SEC or state financial regulatory body and check their disciplinary history.

Ask whether the advisor operates on a fee-only, commission-based, or hybrid fee structure and request a clear written explanation.

Confirm the advisor's areas of expertise match your needs—retirement planning, investment management, tax strategy, or estate planning.

Request references from current clients and ask about their experience with the advisor's communication and responsiveness.

Review the advisor's Form ADV, which discloses conflicts of interest, investment strategies, and fee schedules.

Ask about the advisor's investment philosophy and whether they use a written financial plan to guide recommendations.

Understand the process for reviewing and rebalancing your portfolio and how often you'll meet to discuss progress.

Quality signals to look for

Look for advisors who provide transparent fee disclosures in writing and maintain current registrations with regulatory bodies. A qualified advisor should be willing to explain their investment approach and how they're compensated for their recommendations. Be cautious of advisors who pressure you into immediate decisions, avoid discussing fees upfront, or conduct business primarily through informal channels without documented agreements. Verify credentials independently rather than relying solely on claims made during initial consultations.

Fee-only structures may reduce conflicts of interest, while commission-based models can sometimes offer lower upfront costs.
