Fiduciary Responsibility |
|
| What does it mean to be a fiduciary? |
| Fiduciary is a legal term as well as a point of liability. It’s a higher level of obligation than that of a broker or an advisor. Professionals can choose to act intentionally as a fiduciary on your behalf, or not. We commit to being a named fiduciary on every fee client’s behalf. This holds us accountable to three specific legal standards: |
| -> |
We must eliminate, to the extent possible, any real or perceived conflicts of interest between ourselves and those we serve. |
| -> |
We must fully disclose all compensation. |
| -> |
We must only make recommendations that are in your best interest. |

| Who is Geneos Wealth Management, Inc.? |
| Geneos Wealth Management was founded on the belief that bigger isn’t always better. In 2002, the founders, Russ and George Diachok saw an opportunity to create a unique home in the independent broker dealer marketplace. An idea was born to create an environment where personal relationships, flexibility in service and advisor ownership were the top priorities. A team of highly skilled industry veterans and quality employees was constructed to build a firm where the advisor was not only the client but also a friend with a shared vision for success. |
