[![Doctors Have the Hippocratic Oath - What About Financial Advisors?](https://www.letsassemble.com/hs-fs/file-2470932645-jpg/images/Hiring-A-Financial-Advisor-Fiduciary-Duty.jpg?width=300&name=Hiring-A-Financial-Advisor-Fiduciary-Duty.jpg) ](https://www.letsassemble.com/wealth-management-blog/doctors-have-the-hippocratic-oath-what-about-financial-advisors)

The Hippocratic oath for doctors dates back 2,500 years, and it is credited to Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine. As far back as the oath reaches, it’s core meaning still remains today – a doctor must put the interests of every patient before their own.1

We think the same principle should apply to financial advisors. Someone who gives you investment advice should act in your best interests and place your interests ahead of their own. Importantly, that also means not making recommendations simply because they produce higher commissions for the advisor or their investment firm.

### Do Financial Advisors Have to Put Your Interests Before Their Own?

*Not necessarily.*

July 26, 2014

 According to a recent MetLife survey, $2.6 billion is lost each year to financial scams aimed at seniors and retirees.1 Being aware of the common financial scams is a good first step in protecting your nest egg, but hiring a financial advisor as your sounding board could be your best defense. Your advisor may have seen the scam before and can help prevent it from happening to you. 4 Common Financial Scams to Look Out For and How to Protect Yourself 1) “Reduce the Interest Rate on Your Credit Card” If an unsolicited caller says they can reduce your credit card rate and asks for your existing credit card number and personal information, hang up.2 You can always call your credit card company directly if you want to negotiate rates. It is important not to give your social security number or credit card number to anyone but the most trusted companies you have a working relationship with.

December 23, 2011

 A recent compliance alert from ACA Compliance Group describes the SEC's initiative to combat fraud in hedge funds, known as the Aberrational Performance Inquiry. The program "aims to identify "abnormal" fund performance, that is, fund performance that is inconsistent with fund strategies and/or benchmarks." In an attempt to "thwart various illegal practices," the SEC "will pay particular attention to returns consistently greater than three percent of their respective market index."

June 2, 2011

 In his latest must read commentary, Chief Investment Officer David Iben at money manager Tradewinds discusses the concept of money and its use throughout history. "When discounting future cash flows, the "value" of that cash at the time it is received in the future should be in the forefront of peoples' minds. Fiat currencies and bonds are somebody's liability. Governments' ability to make good on these obligations is imperative. In light of the current, precarious situation of most issuers of paper currency and sovereign bonds, Tradewinds prefers to own good business franchises and tangible wealth."

March 28, 2011

 Money manager Macquarie Allegiance compares the actions of the US, EU and Chinese central banks over the last decade and how certain trends may be fading. "A lot of attention is on the Federal Reserve policy outlook, unsurprisingly because the economy is proving strong and the second round of quantitative easing is scheduled to end in June 2011. However, an international perspective would suggest that the Fed is no longer leading global policy; in fact the Fed is likely to be the next to last major developed country central bank to tighten monetary policy."

 "Rising oil prices and the disaster in Japan have added new risks to the global economy in 2011. We have not yet changed our forecast for US growth of 3.8% this year. But we're watching closely for signs of higher energy prices eroding consumer spending, and monitoring the potential disruption on US manufacturing if supply chains from Japan face prolonged downtime."

 On the heels of the Fed's announcement regarding QE2, the mid-term election, and a host of good economic data and corporate earnings reports, we are starting to feel incrementally more optimistic about the near-term. Nevertheless, our view continues to be that the most likely path forward will be the slow, plodding recovery providing periods of softness accompanied by volatility.

September 14, 2010

 Although the recession may have ended in the third quarter of 2009, a number of threats to the recovery continue to loom. Some believe that one of these is the stagnation of the securitization market. As the Financial Times reported last year, "Securitized markets - which financed more than half of all credit in the United States in the years immediately preceding the crisis - are essential for the U.S. economy. Without a recovery in these markets, the flow of credit will not return to more normal levels, even if U.S. banks overcome their problems."
