Legal Fiduciary Responsibility

WHAT IS FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY? In simple terms, financial coaches with fiduciary responsibility have a legal responsibility to put clients’ needs ahead of their own.  They have a responsibility that holds a higher ethical standard and pertinent knowledge to provide sophisticated wealth management services and advice. The investor must always come first. At Retirement Asset Managers Inc., we always put your needs ahead of our own and live up to our fiduciary responsibilities.

A Registered Investment Adviser (RIA) is an investment adviser (IA) registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or a state’s securities agency. An IA must adhere to a fiduciary standard of care laid out in the US Investment Advisers Act of 1940. This standard requires IAs to act and serve a client’s best interests with the intent to eliminate, or at least to expose, all potential conflicts of interest which might incline an investment adviser—consciously or unconsciously—to render advice which was not in the best interest of the IA’s clients.
