When you have been able to draw down a list of short listed applicants for the post of your personal financial advisor, schedule an interview before you make the final call. Inquire about his professional qualifications? Does he possess a college or graduate degree? What special qualifications does he have that qualify him to be a financial advisor? Does he have credentials from organizations in the field? A certification from the National Association of Personal Financial Planner- Registered Financial Planner is one of the preferred certifications the advisor can possess. There are also other certifications like a Certified Financial Planner, or the Chartered Financial Consultant which are also equally valid. Ask about the number of years has he been a financial advisor. Inquire about his clients, and ask for references. Has he ever had disciplinary action taken against him by a regulatory board? Are there complaints against him pending? Once you have his qualifications and experience question out of the way, inquire about his services. Does he include services like estate planning, insurance planning and retirement funds in his services? Does he offer ongoing financial advice? Does he offer help with taxes? Does he recommend financial products? Lastly, inquire about the kind of compensation plans he prefers. Will he take a fixed fee, or will he get commissions from recommended products, or a hourly fee?
The interview will be taken as an opportunity to get to know you better by the financial advisor too. He needs to know what your goals and aspiration are, and you should be able to articulate these to him loud and clear without any doubts. For this purpose, spend some time before you meet with the financial advisor, defining your long term and short term goals. Your long term goals could be more funds-intensive like buying a house, or traveling after your retirement. Your short term goals could be expanding you business in the near future. The more the financial advisor knows about your goals, the better he is able to determine the sort of advice and commitment that you're looking for. Be prepared to give him well thought out and fleshed out answers that give him the right picture of what you want your post retirement life to look at. Saying, "I want to be able to secure my future" doesn't say a lot.
