The hiring of your Financial Advisor is an important decision with many contributing factors. Before you hire someone to manage your finances, always ask for and carefully read both parts of the Advisor’s Form ADV.
Advisors use Form ADV to register as an investment advisor with the SEC and State government. Form ADV has two parts. Part One contains information about the Advisor’s education as well as their business and disciplinary history accrued within the last decade. Part Two includes pertinent information regarding an adviser’s services, fees, and investment strategies.
We at Foundation Wealth Management would be happy to provide you with a copy of our ADV upon request.
