SCARLET OAK FINANCIAL SERVICES

Fiduciary Financial Planners in Atlanta

The fiduciary financial planners at Scarlet Oak Financial Services are licensed IARs, or Investment Advisory Representatives. As financial fiduciaries, they are held to the highest ethical standards in the financial service industry. Regulations require fiduciaries to put your financial interests ahead of their own.

One of our main responsibilities is to provide you with investment-related advice on a fee-based or fee-only basis, rather than brokering, trading, or selling securities for commissions. This structure eliminates a major conflict of interest that causes some advisors to put their need for income ahead of your need to achieve your financial goals.

What is a Fiduciary?

Fees and Custody of Assets

Our fee structure is transparent, and there are no hidden fees. There are no wire fees, transaction, or commission costs related to investments.  Your costs are based either on a percentage of assets we manage or on a preset hourly basis for consulting.  If one of your needs is insurance, this is the one area that we are paid a commission that is built into the policy.

This arrangement brings us on the same side as the table as you, as we are incentivized to help you grow your portfolio.
