Rapid City Financial Planning Firm Named a Provider of Choice for Medical Community
Rapid City, SD, August xx, 2009—Kahler Financial Group, a local fee-only financial planning firm, was recently named a provider of choice for the MD Preferred Service Network, a national internet based physician resource center. Kahler Financial Group has been admitted to MD Preferred Financial Advisor Network, which offers the nation’s physicians access to fee-only financial advisors who act strictly in a fiduciary capacity.
“Physicians take the Hippocratic Oath which compels them to act solely in the best interests of the patients they serve,” explained Rick Kahler, president of Kahler Financial Group. “Our firm abides by a Fiduciary Oath which compels us to act solely in the best interests of our clients. In light of these very important similarities, it only makes sense for Kahler Financial Group to work with area physicians.”
Financial planning firms in the MD Preferred Financial Advisor Network must successfully complete a stringent application and review process through the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA), the country’s leading association of fee-only financial advisors. Kahler is a member of NAPFA, which requires every member to sign a Fiduciary Oath. NAPFA partnered with the MD Preferred Service Network to start the new Preferred Financial Advisor Network.
“Many NAPFA-Registered Financial Advisors already provide ongoing financial advice to physicians and their families,” said Ellen Turf, CEO of NAPFA. “We are thrilled MD Preferred Service Network recognizes the importance of Fee-Only compensation and a fiduciary standard in financial advice and approached NAPFA about being the exclusive partner in this program.”
