Oak Street Advisors is a fee only financial planning and investment advisory firm. We work with both individuals and small businesses. The reason Oak Street Advisors chose to be a fee only financial advisory firm is simple. We believe our clients are looking for solutions to their financial problems not financial products. By opting to work on a fee only basis Oak Street Advisors can eliminate many of the conflicts of interest inherent in the business models of many who hold themselves out as providing financial advise. Oak Street Advisors is a member of the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA), an organization that champions the cause of fee only investment advise and comprehensive financial planning. As an independent Registered Investment Advisory firm, Oak Street Advisors is free to survey the universe of investment options to find the solutions we believe best meet the needs of our clients. We are not tied to the product offerings of a handful of insurance companies or the proprietary products offered by the big national brokerage firms. Our aim is to find best of breed options for our clients. As a Registered Investment Advisory firm, Oak Street Advisors is bound to accept a fiduciary standard of care for all our clients. The fiduciary standard is the highest level of care, requiring us to always put the needs of our clients first. Our clients know that Oak Street Advisors will always make recommendations based on what we believe to be in their best interest. We aim to fully disclose any conflicts of interest and take steps to mitigate any that arise. Best of all, Oak Street Advisors always treats our clients like family. We know our clients by name, not by an account number. To provide truly valuable financial planning, we know about you, your family, your dreams, and your fears as well as your bank balance. .
