A Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as an individual or a firm that is in the business of giving advice about securities. RIAs have a fiduciary duty to their clients, which means they have a fundamental obligation to provide suitable investment advice and always act in their clients’ best interests.
“BerganKDV Wealth Management’s continued growth is thanks to our people and the relationships they develop with our clients,” said Dave Hinnenkamp, Partner in Charge of BerganKDV Wealth Management. “Financial success creates complexities. We are driven to help our clients navigate these complexities by giving great business advice on investment planning, tax planning, financial planning, estate planning and risk management so they can meet their financial goals.”
