Getting registered as an investment advisor under the RIA framework isn't just paperwork—it's a thorough vetting process that tests your compliance knowledge, fiduciary understanding, and business practices. You'll need to pass the Series 65 or 66 exam, draft a comprehensive Form ADV, and establish a robust compliance program. Many new advisors underestimate the ongoing obligations, like annual amendments, recordkeeping, and state-level registrations, which can extend the timeline significantly.
