Abstract

Challenges existed for an investment adviser in guiding a client on how best to proceed with investment decision-making. These challenges were further magnified when the client was a potential new client with minimal background in investing. In this case, the founding principal of a comprehensive, fee-based registered investment adviser firm located in southeastern North Carolina considered how best to proceed. Through educating the new client on investment approaches and providing a means for various analysis, the adviser searched to maintain firm priorities of integrity and trust while aiding his new client on her most sensible portfolio options.
