How to choose a financial advisor in Madison

Verify that the advisor is registered with the SEC or state securities regulator and check their disciplinary history.

Ask whether they operate as a fiduciary—meaning they are legally required to act in your best interest.

Request a clear explanation of their fee structure, including whether they charge flat fees, hourly rates, or assets under management.

Inquire about their investment philosophy and whether it matches your risk tolerance and time horizon.

Ask for references from current clients and review any certifications they hold, such as CFP or CFA.

Discuss their experience managing portfolios similar in size and complexity to yours.

Request a written engagement agreement that outlines services, fees, and performance expectations.

Quality signals to look for

Look for advisors who provide transparent fee disclosures upfront and maintain a registered status with financial regulatory bodies. A qualified advisor should be willing to explain their qualifications, provide client references, and offer a written agreement detailing services and costs. Be cautious of advisors who pressure you into immediate decisions, operate exclusively online without verifiable credentials, or are unwilling to discuss fees in detail. Avoid anyone demanding payment in cash without documentation or claiming guaranteed returns.
