They volunteer this information so you do not have to ask the right questions and know good answers (reasonable expenses) from bad ones (excessive expenses).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Withhold Information?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are three reasons why advisors withhold expense data.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\u00a0You may not buy what they are selling if you know all of the expenses that will be deducted from your accounts. For example, really bad investment products charge high fees so they can pay big commissions to less ethical sales representatives.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\u00a0Advisors do not want you to know how much money they make from your assets. For example, an advisor may make thousands of dollars for a one-hour sales pitch. You may question the value of their services in relation to their compensation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\u00a0It is tougher to compare competing proposals if you do not know expenses. For example, one advisor proposes services that have a fully loaded cost of 2%. Another advisor proposes services that cost 3.5% of your assets each year. The more expensive advisor has a better chance of winning if you do not know his proposal is 75% higher than his competitor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Protect Your Financial Interests<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Each <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/iwd.paladinregistry.com\/advisors-2\/financial-advisor-fiduciary\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">advisor who wants to influence or control the investment of your assets should be required to do three things<\/span><\/a><\/span>.
