Key Features of AdvisorFinder
Comprehensive Profiles
Our platform features detailed profiles of financial advisors, including their qualifications, areas of expertise, and years of experience. This information enables you to gain a better understanding of each advisor's background and capabilities, helping you make more informed decisions during your search.
Customizable Search Process
AdvisorFinder's intuitive search functionality allows you to filter results based on your specific needs and preferences. You can narrow down your search by location, area of expertise, and other relevant factors, ensuring you discover advisor options that meet your unique requirements.
Easy Connection Process
In the Marketplace, you can contact an advisor through their profile. Or take the free Assessment and choose introductions to one advisor or 2–3 advisors to compare. Your contact details are only shared with your express consent.
Transparent Information
Marketplace advisors manage their own profiles, where you can review their services, fees, typical clients and areas of focus. Ask the advisor about anything that is not clear before you decide to work together.
Why Choose AdvisorFinder
AdvisorFinder helps you explore advisors based on your needs, compare their specialties, typical clients and fees, and decide whether to connect.
Free for Consumers
Consumers never pay AdvisorFinder. You can browse the Marketplace without an account. When you submit your contact details in the Assessment, an account is created for you and your results are saved.
How the Marketplace Is Funded
Marketplace advisors or their firms pay through subscriptions, firm-funded arrangements and fees for prospective-client introductions. They cannot pay to appear higher in your Assessment results. Results are based on your search criteria. If you choose to hire an advisor, you would then agree on any advisory fees directly with that advisor.
The Marketplace and the Directory Are Separate
The AdvisorFinder directory lists U.S. advisors from public SEC and FINRA records, whether they pay AdvisorFinder or not. You cannot message an advisor through an unclaimed directory profile.
