Engagements and compensation

A planning relationship designed to continue through implementation.

Standalone plans are available, but our preferred relationship combines planning, investment implementation through Investia Financial Services Inc., and ongoing review.

Start with a 20-minute fit call.

The fit call identifies the decision, confirms whether it fits our scope, and determines the appropriate next engagement. Financial records are not required for this call and should not be sent through a public form.

Ways to engage Stiller Financial.

Standalone planning

A standalone plan is available when the questions and deliverables are well defined. The scope, responsibilities, timing, and fee are confirmed before work begins. Ongoing monitoring is not included unless separately agreed.

Planning, implementation, and ongoing review

This is our preferred model. We build the plan, implement investment recommendations through Investia Financial Services Inc., and review the plan and portfolio as circumstances change.

Advisor and portfolio second opinion

A written second opinion can be completed without transferring accounts. If implementation is requested later, the scope, fees, and Investia relationship are explained before any account paperwork begins.

Tax preparation

New tax-only work is generally accepted for corporate clients or where tax preparation overlaps with an existing or proposed planning relationship. Scope and fees depend on the filings and complexity.

Insurance review

Insurance reviews can be completed on a standalone basis. If implementation is recommended, the product, ownership, premiums, and applicable compensation are explained before the client proceeds.

How compensation is explained.

In an ongoing relationship, Stiller Financial is generally compensated through the investment accounts and products implemented through Investia Financial Services Inc. The applicable fees and compensation are explained before implementation.

Standalone planning is priced according to the agreed scope. The fee is confirmed before work begins.

We do not publish an asset minimum. Fit depends on the planning need, complexity, and whether the relationship can be serviced properly.

How Investia fits.

Stiller Financial provides the planning relationship, portfolio strategy, investment recommendations, implementation coordination, and ongoing client service.

Where investment products and services are involved, they are offered through Investia Financial Services Inc. Client investment accounts, statements, and portal access are maintained through the Investia structure.

Insurance services are provided through Stiller Financial. Tax preparation and planning scope are confirmed separately.
