LACONIA — The Foundry Financial Group, Inc. has changed its financial planning and investment management service model to be a fee-only investment advisor. The change, which took effect on May 15, means that advisors are only compensated by the fees paid directly by clients, instead of by commission for the sale of an investment product, insurance product, or annuity.

“This change has been coming for a long time,” said Michael H. Fogarty, CFP, president. “When an advisor is paid a commission for the sale of a financial product, it presents a potential conflict of interest. By eliminating that potential conflict, our clients know that we are putting their interests first.”

“This compensation structure means that we only serve our clients’ best interests as fiduciaries and as partners in their financial decision-making,” Fogarty continued.
