How to choose a financial advisor in Ft Wayne

• Verify that the advisor is registered with the SEC or state financial regulatory authority and check for any disciplinary history.
• Ask whether the advisor operates as a fiduciary at all times, meaning they're legally required to prioritize your interests over their own.
• Request a written fee schedule that clearly outlines all costs—whether they charge hourly, a flat fee, assets under management, or commissions.
• Inquire about their investment philosophy and how they tailor strategies to your specific goals, timeline, and risk tolerance.
• Ask for references from current clients and take time to speak with at least two before deciding.
• Understand what services are included—portfolio management, retirement planning, tax strategy, estate planning—and what costs extra.
• Review their qualifications, certifications (such as CFP or CFA), and years of experience in the field.
