Frequently asked questions
Is Independent Financial Planning a fiduciary?
As a registered investment advisor (RIA), the firm is required to act as a fiduciary under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and applicable state laws. This means it must put client interests ahead of its own, a standard not always held by broker-dealers.
How can I verify the registration of Independent Financial Planning?
Registration information for registered investment advisors is available through the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) database or your state securities regulator. You can search by firm name to confirm licensing, disclosures, and any disciplinary history (per SEC guidance).
