Unsure If Your Broker is Really Maximizing Your
Portfolio?
Many people use brokers ... and brokers can provide great service.
But often, we hear clients say they are:
 |
Concerned
or unsure
as to whether their
broker is really maximizing their portfolio. They
sometimes have a
question lurking in the back of their minds -- is that stock/bond
recommendation one that's based on my portfolio or in the broker's interest? |
|
Frustrated
that their broker doesn't seem interested or doesn't have the time to
answer broad financial questions. |
|
Unsettled when working alone with a broker.
Often people feel
"put on the spot" when a broker recommends something -- because it's hard to
tell if it's a good idea AND it becomes one more thing to worry about.
As well, brokers usually do not work with you to create a cohesive plan with
defined goals, and an investment program that works
toward these goals. |
Brokers have their place -- but
when you work with a Registered Investment Advisor you'll get a financial roadmap
which you can implement with the Advisor or with your Broker .... or both.
Still have some questions about roles and what's best for you? Consider the
following questions:
|
Do you want to work with someone who is interested in your whole financial
picture – tax consequences, company stock options, how your 401(k) fits
into your portfolio, and how to save for your children’s college education?
|
|
Are you interested in
building long-term wealth or just simply looking for short-term profits? |
|
Do you want a disciplined investment plan or just need some
investment ideas? |
|
Are you concerned about
portfolio balance and diversification? |
|
Do you want access to a broad
set of investment options? |
If your focus is short term, a
broker can provide excellent service. But if you want to create a broad
financial roadmap, consider a Registered Investment
Advisor. Please contact us for a free phone consultation to see how Nauset
can help you plan your financial future. |
