Financial Clarity for Doctors

What it Means to Be a Fiduciary


Listen Later

If you’ve researched financial planning and professional advice, chances are you have come across the word ‘fiduciary’.  But what does it really mean?  In this episode of Financial Clarity for Doctors, hosts Rachelle Vanderzanden and Corey Janoff unpack the word and other qualifications for Financial Advisors.

Tune in to hear more about:

  • The different standards financial professionals are held to depending on their licensing, including:
    • A fiduciary or best interest standard
    • The suitability standard.
    • Regulations in finance and how they have worked over time to protect consumers.
    • Ethics in financial planning. This can be upheld by an employer to a certain extent but is also dependent on individual professionals.
    • Additional certifications that financial professionals can work toward and how they encourage an ethical approach.
    • Regulations and ethics standards are important, but when working with any professional, their ethics and your relationship with them will always be the most important.  Referrals can be a great way to find someone that has already built a trusting relationship with clients.  Folks are unlikely to refer you to someone they don’t trust!
