Advice You Can Trust
FedWise Advisors is a fee-only financial services firm, meaning we don’t accept commissions from third parties for promoting or selling their products. Our compensation comes directly from you, and our fees stay consistent regardless of the investment strategy we recommend. This transparency allows us to focus solely on your needs when making any recommendations.
Not Everyone Meets This Standard
Some advisors follow a rule called Regulation Best Interest, which can be confused with being a Fiduciary. This rule requires them to recommend products that are suitable for you at the time of the suggestion but may not be the best option for you both now and in the long-term. Typically, these investments are proprietary funds that have kickbacks, pay a commission, or have hidden fees. Conflicts of interest can still exist, as long as they’re disclosed, which is typically buried in the fine print.
