More detail
Some of its people may also act in other roles, such as for a broker-dealer or as insurance agents, where different rules apply. Details below.
The SEC put it this way in 2019: 'Under federal law, an investment adviser is a fiduciary.'
Some of the firm's people may also act for a broker-dealer: 10 staff are broker-dealer representatives and the firm is itself a registered representative of a broker-dealer. When someone acts for a broker-dealer, a different SEC standard, Regulation Best Interest, applies to their recommendations. Ask which role they are acting in.
