Type your advisor's name. We check SEC and FINRA public records and show you exactly what they say: registrations, disclosures, and the questions worth asking.

Every registered investment adviser representative and broker in the United States has a public record with the SEC or FINRA. This tool reads those records live and translates them into plain English: whether your advisor is registered to give advice, whether they also sell products as a broker, whether they have disclosures such as customer complaints or regulatory actions, and which exams they passed.
A fiduciary is legally required to put your interests first. Brokers follow a lower bar called Regulation Best Interest, which permits commission conflicts a fiduciary must avoid. Many advisors are registered as both, and the fiduciary duty only applies when they act in the advisory role. Learn more in our guides: fiduciary vs. broker and suitability vs. the fiduciary standard.
Public records show registrations and history, not quality of advice or how an advisor is paid on every product. A clean record is a good starting point, not a guarantee. Ask any advisor directly: are you a fiduciary at all times, and how do you make money? Every advisor on FiduciaryCheck has been verified as a fee-only fiduciary before being listed.
