Frequently Asked Questions
-
Stockbrokers, unlike investment advisor representatives, are often not bound legally by a fiduciary duty to look out for your best financial interests. Instead consider working with a wealth advisor, who is bound by a fiduciary duty to act in your best interests.
-
Some stockbrokerages may claim they are ‘full-service’, providing clients with different professional services such as estate and tax planning in addition to investing on behalf of their clients. However, unlike wealth advisors, who are legally bound by a fiduciary duty to their clients, those companies may focus their time on upselling clients for their own gain. In contrast, family office-style financial advisory firms, such as Mercer Advisors, offer services as part of a financial plan geared towards helping clients achieve the lifestyle they desire.
-
We believe in simple, transparent fees. As a fee-based fiduciary, we can remain focused on doing what’s best for you, not commissions.
-
If you are considering switching brokers—which typically comes with a fee and potentially other costs–you should first reflect on your reasons for doing so, and ask yourself if a new broker is the real solution. In many cases, we can only get real value from our investments when they are part of a unified financial plan, which considers future returns in light of retirement, tax, healthcare, and estate planning needs.
-
At Mercer Advisors, the phrase “unified team” refers to our integrated group of professionals — financial planners, investment managers, tax advisors, estate strategists, insurance specialists, and other professionals — who collaborate to design and execute your comprehensive financial plan. This unified approach helps ensure all aspects of your financial life are working together.
-
Mercer Advisors employs a factor-based investing approach, grounded in decades of academic research. This investment strategy involves assessing factors such as company size, quality, momentum, value, and volatility to construct well-diversified portfolios with higher expected returns.
Our investment committee oversees this process, helping to ensure that your portfolio aligns with your financial goals and risk tolerance.
