Making decisions about a financial advisor isn’t something you do once and forget. It’s an ongoing relationship, and you deserve to stay informed every step of the way. That’s why we created Advisor Monitoring – a simple tool designed to keep you updated about important changes to the advisors you follow.
Here’s How it Works
Follow any advisor directly from their profile or search results
Receive free monthly email updates with any changes
Get clear explanations in plain language
View all updates anytime from your AdvisorCheck Dashboard
We’ll let you know about:
New jobs or firm affiliations
Licensing or state registration changes
Updated contact information or office addresses
Updates on regulatory disclosures
We also include explainers in easy-to-understand terms, so you can get a sense of what these changes will mean to you.
These updates come from publicly available data from FINRA BrokerCheck, and The SEC’s Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) database. Learn more here.
Why Advisor Monitoring Matters
An advisor's professional situation can change, sometimes unexpectedly. Advisor Monitoring helps you avoid surprises and proactively alerts you to important developments you might not even know to look for, eliminating the need for constant manual checks and the worry of missing something vital.
Whether you’re in the early stages of researching or have already chosen someone, this feature helps you stay confident and informed, automatically.
How to Get Started
Getting started with Advisor Monitoring is simple:
If you haven't already, sign up for a free AdvisorCheck account.
Search for an advisor you’re considering or already working with
Once you find their profile, click the "Follow" button.
Once you start following an advisor, AdvisorCheck will begin monitoring their public regulatory information for changes.
Managing Your Monitored Advisors
You are always in control. You can manage the advisors you monitor at any time by adding new ones or removing advisors from your "Followed Advisors" list within your dashboard.
