Transparency allows the consumer to decide if the services and fees offered by the financial advisor are fair and logical, and if it is in their best interest to work with that advisor. Disclosures can be about if they have committed a crime, whether financial or not. IMPORTANT: Never trust what an advisor says verbally.
