There you are: seven great financial investment tips to get you on the right path to financial freedom. Enjoy and prosper!

If you tell people that you play the market, they’re likely to respond in one of two ways – either they want you to give them investment advice, or they think that they’re experts and they want to give you investment advice.

Today, investment advice is everywhere, but investors should beware – free investment advice is usually worth exactly what you pay for it – nothing!

Using a Stock Broker for Investment Advice

All too often, stock brokers are trained salespeople, more so than trained financial professionals. Before you act on any investment advice from a stock broker, make sure you understand how the broker is paid. Do you pay him a fee specifically to give you investment advice?

If so, does he have any other incentives to advise you to buy a certain stock or financial product? Stock brokers are legally required to disclose any conflicts of interest when giving investment advice, so make sure you ask.

Or, if you’re not paying your broker specifically for investment advice, you need to ask him if he receives a higher commission from the product he’s recommending you buy than from other, comparable products.

Using CNBC for Investment Advice

CNBC is a 24-hour business news channel, and throughout the course of day, dozens of stock market pundits appear on screen to give investment advice. To disclose all possible conflicts of interest, CNBC displays an on-screen graphic detailing if the pundit owns any of the investments he’s advising you buy, or if his family or firm do.

However, the biggest risk in using CNBC for recommendations is that much of the investment advice is distilled into minute sound bytes. This results in an incomplete picture, in which you may not fully understand the pros and cons of a given stock or other investment vehicle.

Using Magazines for Investment Advice

There are numerous magazines that dispense investment advice. The best among them are probably SmartMoney and Forbes.

SmartMoney is geared towards somewhat less sophisticated investors, however, Wall Street pros can read and enjoy the publication without it insulting their intelligence. The good news is that SmartMoney offers in-depth profiles of many stocks and other investments in each issue.

It is also faithfully honest about its best and worst picks, and it routinely reviews how its investment selections have performed over the past year.

Forbes is slightly different type of publication, with a somewhat more affluent and conservative audience. While SmartMoney is geared towards upper middle class investors with a few hundred grand in their 401k’s, Forbes is more for the executive-level investor with a few hundred grand in annual contributions to the Republican Party.

This does not mean, however, that Forbes is not a good publication. It does devote a full 1/3 of its pages to investment advice, and while its investments articles are not as in-depth as SmartMoney’s, they are well-written and concise – and sometimes that’s just as good.

Using the Internet for Investment Advice

There are numerous online sources of investment advice. Yahoo! Finance publishes articles and relays analyst opinion. TheStreet.com has many premium products that give comprehensive recommendations. But easily the most famous website for investment advice is MorningStar (morningstar.com).

MorningStar is best known for its mutual fund reviews, but it also publishes research reports on individual stocks. However, MorningStar has come under increased pressure lately as many of its picks have failed to pan out.

MorningStar assigns stocks ratings of one to five stars, and critics charge that the company will give a bad stock a good rating, and then as the share price falls, MorningStar upgrades the stock – saying it’s fallen too far and is now a great bargain.

The problem? The stock sometimes continues to fall. In the case of certain stocks like Microsoft (MSFT) and eBay (EBAY), MorningStar may soon have to create a sixth star to give them as they continue to plummet in value.

The message is – beware of all investment advice. Get your recommendations from multiple sources, always check the advisor’s track record, and be wary of any potential conflicts of interest. And the next time your brother-in-law tries to give you some investment advice, refer back to the first paragraph of this article.

You might have expected that the headline of the Weekend Australian Financial Review’s lead article would have put a shiver down the spines of financial advisors like ourselves – “Spotlight on Financial Planners – High Price for Advice”.  To be frank, I was a touch hesitant at first in reading the article but on reflection found that there were a range of comments made in the article that highlighted in a positive light the services of some financial advisors.  I wanted to address a few of these points.

1) The key problem is that financial planners have been paid in trail commissions from fund managers and not their clients.

Trailing commissions are payments by fund managers to financial planners for directing the planner’s clients to invest in the fund – basically a reward to financial planners for using their product.  The article quotes a study from the Industry Superannuation Network (ISN) that suggests four fifths of people believed commissions compromised independent financial advice.  (Of course the ISN have their own bias in that their super funds do not pay commissions to advisors)

There is some truth to this argument.  We are clear in acknowledging on our website and when communicating to current and prospective clients that we do not accept commissions from fund managers.  There is actually a cash fund in our recommended portfolio for non super and pension clients that requires us to receive a commission.  Every three months we return this commission to client accounts in full.

The reason for taking this stance is that we do not want to even be accused of providing clients with advice that is biased in any way.

That being said, we actually believe there are some grounds where financial planners using a trailing commission fee model can provide a really great service for clients, particularly those with smaller funds to invest, as long as they are not encouraged to recommend particular investment because of the commission.  Commissions can make financial advice affordable.

The key point, as mentioned in the article, is that the investments / products that are recommended are done so with the client’s best interests in mind.

2) There is a confusion amongst investors about payments that are received by financial advisors.

This is for us the key issue.  A financial advisor must be providing clients with all of the information about payments they are making, or the product that they are using is making to advisors.  Clearly showing the dollar value of these fees along with the percentage fee is really crucial.

A fee that is very rarely mentioned is what are called volume rebates.

Volume rebates are where a financial product provider “rewards” a financial advisor for directing their clients to a particular product or service by providing them a volume rebate.  The level of the rebate increases as the amount of funds directed to the product provider increases.

We utilise an administration service for clients.  Our group of financial advisory firms receives a significant rebate from the service because of the large amount of assets which are invested with the service.  A financial advisor has three basic choices here, keep the rebate for themselves or pass it back to clients, or a combination of the two.  We choose to pass the rebate back in full to our clients and in doing so significantly reduce the administration service fee by almost half.

3) Are asset based fee models the same as trail commissions?

There is a clear distinction between the two.  A financial advisor using a trailing commission fee model is being paid for recommending particular investments whereas an assets under management fee model advisor is being paid based on the total amount of assets the client wants managed by them.  The second are free to recommend investments they prefer for clients without being biased by commissions from a particular product.

The article suggests that another problem with trailing commissions or asset based fees is that investors do not understand how the payments grow over the years.  This is a fair point.  The usual reason for seeking advice in the first place is to grow your level of investments.  Under a trailing commission or asset based fee arrangement, the dollar amount of fees grows as the value of the investment grows.

The asset based fee model is sound as long as fees are capped, i.e, they do not grow without limit.  We place a $4,400 cap (GST inclusive) on our client portfolios.  This means that no client will ever pay us more than $4,400 (less GST) per annum.  Thereby clients can be absolutely sure of the outer limits of the fees that are payable to the advisor.

4) Getting out of a relationship with a financial advisor is difficult

The article also implies that under the commission fee structure, clients can stop having an ongoing relationship with an advisor but continue to pay the trailing commission fees.  This is a problem with trailing commissions.  Advisors set clients up into particular investments and can do nothing ever again while still receive ongoing payments into their accounts.

We are open with our clients that they can choose to cease ongoing advice whenever they want to.  From that point onwards no more advisor fees will be paid into our account.

We also do not charge upfront fees for this very reason.  We do not want to place barriers in the way of clients to get in or get out of our advisory services.  Payment of an upfront or annual fee paid once per year can make clients feel like they have to keep using the service to get their money’s worth.  We feel it is much healthier for clients to know that they can move to another financial advisor should they feel the need.

Concluding remarks

The article particularly targets financial planners that use trailing commissions on the basis that this type of fee structure causes planners to be biased in their choice of investments and thereby not working in their client’s best interests.

There is some validity in this argument – take the Westpoint disaster as an example.  However, investors should not be put off looking for good quality, unbiased advice because of this.  Look for a financial advisor who can clearly identify the costs involved with their advice and who are not biased because of their fee structure or because of who “owns” them.
