Watch Your Mouth — On Morningstar Advisor

by Carl on February 16, 2010

At the Morningstar Advisor Blog, I wrote a piece called Watch Your Mouth about the need for advisors to think about the terms we use. Many are incomprehensible to our clients. There’s a growing desire for simplicity, and as advisors we need to figure out language that clarifies what we’re doing instead of confusing the issue.

  • Very good points made on MA. Creativity and originality in clarifying communication with investors is critical to long term client satisfaction.
  • You have the right attitude, as usual. Congratulations.

    However, the more complex that financial planners make things, the more dependent their clients become. And that the path to earning commissions. Nothing else matters to them.
