About Eleven Point Financial Advisors

As an independent advisor, I have the autonomy and discretion to put you at the center of all investment strategies and business decisions. One of the main reasons why we started our own firm after decades of working with big banks was to break away from the excessive regulations and bureaucracy, which lets us spend more time helping our clients. Besides working with me, you also have access to Carla who is very organized, personable and knowledgeable. While we are a smaller firm, we are backed by larger resources like my Broker-Dealer, Cetera Advisor Networks, Cetera Financial Group and our custodian, Pershing. These firms strengthen our relationship with you by providing the needed resources to improve the client experience. Therefore,we believe you should know about these partners and why we decided to work with them.

Our Broker-Dealer: Cetera Advisor Networks

I am affiliated with Cetera Advisor Networks, one of the premier broker-dealers in the industry. As our broker-dealer, they are responsible for executing trades on your behalf. Like all broker-dealers, they must undergo regular auditing, and are required to meet specific net capital requirements to ensure it can meet its obligations to investors like you. This means complying with the SEC, FINRA and other financial regulators to ensure transparency and solvency.

Cetera gives us pure independence meaning that we are not under a sales quota or forced to only sell their products.We have the freedom to recommend the financial solutions that best suit your needs, ensuring your objectives are what drive all decisions. Their network and vast resources help us prepare for your short and long term goals, without hidden agendas nor conflicts of interest.

Our Custodian: Pershing

Pershing acts as a custodian for brokerage accounts, IRAs and other retirement accounts under Cetera Advisor Networks.
