Suitable vs. Fiduciary advice: Brokers’ suitable advice is similar to a car salesperson and is influenced by other interests. They can recommend securities that profit them more or help them meet sales quotas without disclosing the conflicting incentive.
Fiduciary Advice: Fiduciary advice cannot have any interest other than that of the client’s and must be given with skill, prudence and diligence.
