FINANCIAL ADVISOR
WORRY-FREE
A financial advisor is a professional that provides expertise for clients' decisions around money matters, personal finances, and investments. Financial advisors may work as an independent agent, or may be employed by a larger financial firm.
A Financial advisor is a generic term with no precise industry definition. As a result, this title can describe many different types of financial professionals.
Stockbrokers, insurance agents, tax preparers, investment managers, and financial planners can all be considered financial advisors. Estate planners and bankers may also fall under this umbrella.
Still, an important distinction can be made: that is, a financial advisor must actually provide guidance and advice. A financial advisor can be distinguished from an execution stock broker that simply places trades for clients or a tax accountant who simply prepares tax returns without providing advice on how to maximize tax advantages.
Furthermore, what may pass as a financial advisor in some instances may simply be a product salesperson, such as a stockbroker or a life insurance agent. A true financial advisor should be a well-educated, credentialed, experienced, financial professional who works on behalf of his clients, as opposed to serving the interests of a financial institution by maximizing the sales of certain products or capitalizing on commissions from sales.
