Clarity. Trust. Confidence. That’s the fiduciary difference.
When it comes to your financial future, who you choose to guide you matters just as much as the strategies you put in place. At Klaas Financial, we're proud to serve as fiduciaries because we believe your best interests should always come first.
But what does it mean to work with a fiduciary advisor—and why should it matter to you?
What is a Fiduciary?
A fiduciary is a financial advisor who is legally and ethically required to act solely in your best interest. While some advisors may be influenced by sales commissions or incentives, fiduciaries are held to the highest standard of care—focused entirely on helping you achieve your financial goals, with zero conflicts of interest.
At Klaas Financial, being a fiduciary isn’t just a requirement, it’s the foundation of every client relationship we build.

Tips for Choosing the Right Fiduciary Advisor
If you’re considering working with a financial advisor, here are a few key questions to ask:
- Are you always a fiduciary?
- How are you compensated—fee-only, commission-based, or both?
- Can you explain your financial planning and investment philosophy?
- Will you provide recommendations in writing?
- How will our relationship grow and evolve over time?
