Advisors and financial planning

In this workshop from the Financial Skills for the Real World series, we will go over the questions to ask and the steps to take when selecting a good financial advisor. We'll also review how to set up a financial plan (Investment Policy Statement, "Know your Client" form). Finally, we will review what services you should expect from a good financial advisor and how they can help you better manage your finances.
