In differentiating investment professionals, it is important to determine who they answer to. Is it to their clients or their firm? Many financial organizations offer company owned products such as mutual funds, annuities and/or managed money platforms. Often times, they are paid more on those products or have bonuses based on the use of those products. Inevitably, it is easy for their interests to be more in line with their company than with providing their clients with the best possible solution.
