Most investors choose a financial advisor based on a "gut feeling" or a friends referral, yet the most critical details of that relationship are buried in hundreds of pages of dense regulatory filings. The Advisor Suitability Audit is a professional diagnostic tool that strips away the marketing gloss to reveal the objective truth.
We dive deep into the SEC, FINRA, and CFP Board disclosures to vet your advisor’s disciplinary history, hidden fee structures, and inherent conflicts of interest. By translating complex legal jargon into a clear, four-page integrity report, we ensure that the person managing your future is as qualified and transparent as they claim to be.
In an industry where "fine print" can cost you thousands in undisclosed fees or exposure to unvetted risks, information is your best defense. Our audit empowers you with a Suitability Score, providing a "Green, Yellow, or Red" risk assessment and a custom interview guide to use in your next meeting.
Whether you are vetting a new firm or performing due diligence on a long-term relationship, this audit provides the objective data needed to validate your trust.
Don't leave your life savings to chance—get the clarity, cost-transparency, and confidence that only an independent, third-party vetting process can provide.
Why an Advisor Suitability Audit Matters
Trust is essential, but verification is critical. Our objective diagnostic tool translates dense regulatory disclosures intto clear, actionable insights so you can step into any advisor relationship completely empowered.
The Advisor Suitability Audit
How to Order Your Audit
A small investment that can prevent costly mistakes and save you tens of thousands. All we need is the name of the advisor OR the name of the advisory firm. Include as much detail as you can (e.g. the advisors full name and the city or town where they work). We'll take it from there and present you a comprehensive analysis including:
Executive Summary & Verdict: Highlighting key findings and a Green, Yellow, or Red Suitability Score.
Regulatory "Scent" Test: A full analysis of cost structure, hidden fees, and conflicts of interest.
Credential Verification & Conflict Matrix: Disclosing any regulatory findings and customer complaints.
Customized "Nervous Maker" Script: Helping you get the answers you need to make the best decision for your specific situation.
