Tad Hill, President of Freedom Financial Group, a retirement income planning firm, asks who really benefits from the advice given by some retirement advisors.

Birmingham, Ala. – April 24, 2013 – Tad Hill, President of Freedom Financial Group, a firm specializing in finding unique solutions to retirement success, published a new article on his website explaining the differences between advisors held under the Suitability Standard and those who adhere to the Fiduciary Standard. The article, titled “Who is Your Retirement Advisor’s Advice Really For?” reveals how the motivations of broker-dealers and advisors may differ depending on which standard they are legally under.

Hill says “There is a little-known fact in the world of investment advice about how advisors and brokers are governed. You would think that we are all bound to act in the best interests of our clients, but that’s not entirely true. In fact, broker-dealers and advisors offer what seem to be similar services, but there is a significant difference between them. To be an informed consumer, you need to know how we work so you can choose what works best for you.”

Freedom Financial Group specializes in retirement planning, income planning, financial planning, tax planning, estate planning, investment planning, and IRA/401(k) strategies. They help clients create a roadmap for greater peace of mind.

About Tad Hill:

Tad Hill is the President and Founder of Freedom Financial Group in Birmingham, Ala. He and his wife, Toni, founded their business to meet a need they felt wasn’t being addressed properly: helping retirees and pre-retirees in Alabama find answers to issues that may affect their quality of life during their retirement years. Tad and Toni believe each investor is unique and no single strategy is right for everyone. In fact, the defining point that separates their process from other firms is that they carefully identify all of the “must-know” facts critical to retirement success before they discuss any investment decisions. This goes far beyond the “risk tolerance” questionnaire employed by typical firms and results in a roadmap to greater peace of mind for their clients.
