Advertising notice
Some professionals in the Inversado directory pay for advertising and presentation. This page explains which content is advertising, what the labels mean and how you can check a professional yourself.
What is advertising
Content for featured, Pro and Sponsored professionals is advertising, paid for by the professional. That includes the listing text and images a professional supplies, a "Pro" label, a "Sponsored" label and a featured spot. Sponsored listings carry the word "Sponsored" on the listing, on the category and city page where they appear and in any list that includes them. The fee is a flat monthly or yearly amount and never depends on inquiries, clicks, clients signed, assets managed or results. The affiliate and advertising disclosure explains how Inversado is paid.
What a label does and does not mean
A paid label is a way of presenting a listing. It is not an endorsement, a recommendation or a ranking of quality, and it never buys credentials, trust or reviews. Inversado does not verify a professional's registration, licensing or results, except where a page says that a registration was checked. A Pro or Sponsored label appears only after the professional's registration has been checked on the SEC Investment Adviser Public Disclosure site, FINRA BrokerCheck or the state record, and the label does not mean more than that check. Inversado publishes no reviews or ratings at launch.
Check a professional yourself
You can look up an investment adviser or a broker before you contact them:
Your state securities regulator also keeps records, and the site for the professional's own state is a good place to confirm what you find.
Client relationships
If Inversado has a client relationship with a featured professional or firm, that is disclosed where the professional or firm appears.
