Guideway Financial offers comprehensive financial planning and investment management services. They help clients with retirement planning, tax planning, estate planning, risk management, and tax preparation. Guideway Financial can manage investments with or without the client's prior approval for each trade. They primarily recommend mutual funds and exchange traded funds.
Guideway Financial offers investment management as part of their fixed fee engagement. Clients will enter a separate agreement with a custodian or order management system. The firm manages assets on a discretionary basis, meaning they can buy or sell securities without specific consent. They monitor accounts, trade as necessary, and communicate regularly with clients. For clients with "Held Away Accounts" (e.g., 401(k)s), Guideway Financial uses a third-party order management system to implement the investment strategy.
