About PGI WEALTH MANAGEMENT

PGI WEALTH MANAGEMENT holds a Trust Score of 77/100 — an Established rating based on their regulatory filings and business history. As a registered fiduciary, they are legally required to put your interests first — this is the gold standard for financial advice.

In 6 years of operation, PGI WEALTH MANAGEMENT has zero complaints or disciplinary actions — a spotless regulatory record. Their fee-only fee model is standard for the industry.

No major structural conflicts identified based on their SEC filings — they don't appear to have proprietary product incentives, and any custody arrangement reported on their Form ADV is generally the standard regulatory-custody category that applies to fee-only advisers. Bottom line: We recommend interviewing at least 2-3 other advisors in ALPHARETTA before committing to PGI WEALTH MANAGEMENT. Their risk profile suggests extra caution.

Questions to Ask Before Hiring PGI WEALTH MANAGEMENT

1.

“What is your all-in fee, including fund expenses?”

Their disclosed model is fee-only. Ask for the total cost including underlying fund fees, trading costs, and any platform charges.

2.

“Are you a fiduciary at all times — not just sometimes?”

PGI WEALTH MANAGEMENT is registered as a fiduciary, but confirm this applies to ALL recommendations — some firms switch hats when selling insurance or annuities.

3.

“How are you compensated when you recommend a specific product?”

No commissions disclosed — but always confirm in writing that no third-party compensation applies to any recommendation.

4.

“Can I see your Form ADV Part 2A brochure before our next meeting?”

This is the legal disclosure document that details fees, conflicts, and disciplinary history. Every SEC-registered advisor must provide it. Read it before signing anything.

Conflict of Interest Analysis

Broker-Dealer Affiliated: No

No broker-dealer affiliation. Lower risk of commission-driven advice.

Insurance Licensed: No

Not insurance licensed. Cannot sell you annuity or insurance products directly.

Custody per Form ADV Item 9: Yes

SEC Form ADV Item 9 reports that this adviser is deemed to have "custody" of some client assets under Rule 206(4)-2. This is a broad regulatory term that includes situations where client assets sit at an independent qualified custodian (e.g., Schwab, Fidelity) but the adviser has authority to deduct advisory fees, or has a standing letter of authorization on the account. It does not, on its own, mean the adviser physically holds client assets. See the firm's ADV filing on adviserinfo.sec.gov for the specifics.

Proprietary Products: No

Uses only third-party investment products. No proprietary product conflicts.

Regulatory & Disciplinary History

Clean Record

No disciplinary events, regulatory actions, or customer complaints on file with the SEC or FINRA. This firm has maintained a spotless regulatory record for 6 years.
