Please note that Independent Financial Partners does not have custody of any client funds.
Custody is defined as any legal or actual ability by our firm to access client funds or securities. Since all client funds and securities are maintained with a qualified custodian, we dont take physical possession of client assets. However, under the current SEC rules, our firm is deemed to have constructive custody of client assets because we are permitted to directly debit client custodial accounts for our advisory fees. Therefore, we urge all of our management clients to carefully review and compare any statements received from us to those they receive from their custodian. Should you notice any discrepancies, please notify us and/or your custodian as soon as possible. We know that you have choices when it comes to the servicing of your financial planning needs. We at IFP, and on behalf of your Investment Adviser Representative, would like to thank you for the opportunity to be of service to you.
Should you have any questions, or wish to discuss any information contained in this letter, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
John G. Whisenant, AIF Chief Compliance Officer Independent Financial Partners
