Become a Caitlin John Advisor
As one of the few true Fiduciaries in the financial services industry, CPAs are widely regarded as the foremost Trusted Advisor by the vast majority of retail clients. Clients turn to CPAs for much more than just accounting and tax advice, and often look to their CPA to provide guidance on their investments. However, CPAs are not able to receive separate compensation for any advice or recommendations they offer unless they are registered as an Investment Advisor Representative of a Registered Investment Advisor Firm. As a CPA your existing clients already consult you on financial and investment matters – becoming an IAR will help you both sharpen the financial expertise you provide AND allow you to earn additional compensation to do so. By becoming an IAR with Caitlin John, we take the complexity out of the compliance and registration process. You just need to pass your Series 65 Exam. We also will provide you with the education and support required for successfully managing the new Financial Planning and Investment Advisory side of your practice, as well as implementing various advanced planning techniques and Exclusive Programs beyond the capabilities of most RIAs.
Are You Already an Advisor?
Even if you already offer Financial Advisory Services, our team of experts can help add value to your client base and to your practice through our advanced planning techniques and strategies. Successfully implementing these complex concepts and strategies, from the beginning case design to the end execution of the transaction, requires a team of professionals with the necessary expertise, experience, and relationships – resources which undoubtedly require a substantial investment of time and money to gather and develop. We already have the team in place. We’ll partner with you to facilitate implementing these strategies for you clients and prospects, allowing you to be involved as much or as little as you’d like throughout the process, and split the compensation with you. It’s simple: we do the work, you get paid. All you have to do is make the client introduction.
Not interested in being an IAR but still want to be compensated?
As a Financial Advisor, in order to receive compensation for offering investment advice you must be registered as an Investment Advisor Representative of a Registered Investment Advisory Firm. This does involve extra layers of regulatory and registration compliance, which includes TIME that most CPAs do not have much of to spare, especially during busy season. But what if you could still increase your revenue and receive additional income by Partnering with CPA Fiduciary Alliance to help implement the various complex concepts and strategies for your clients? That is exactly what we can offer through the CPA Fiduciary Alliance. We’ll handle implementing the advanced planning solutions and executing any investment transactions, you simply bill US for your additional consulting time to complete and prepare any extra forms and/or disclosures associated with these strategies on your Client(s) tax return.
Align your practice with a Fiduciary Advisor
Perhaps the Financial Advisory path is not for you.

Are you confident that your Clients are receiving the optimal financial planning advice, with someone quarterbacking the multiple facets of a wholistic plan and ensuring they is all in alignment?
