Nerd's Eye View
DECEMBER 6, 2023
According to the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, anyone in the business of rendering advice about securities for compensation is, absent an exclusion or exemption, required to register as an investment adviser.

To see this term blurred with the top advisor definition, it makes me mad because it implies that advisors who are selected on the basis of production – and this gives me the sense that this ranking had a lot to do with precisely that – are the best financial advisors. Selling a product does not equal financial advice.
