Firm Description
Greenberg Financial Group was founded in 1998.
Greenberg Financial Group is registered as an Investment Advisor with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In its capacity as a Registered Investment Advisor, the firm offers the following services
to clients:
Greenberg Financial Group provides personalized, confidential, investment management to individuals,
pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and small businesses. Advice
is provided through consultation with the client and includes determination of financial objectives,
identification of financial problems, cash flow management, investment management, education
funding, and retirement planning.
Greenberg Financial Group is in the business of selling annuities, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, limited
partnerships, and other commissioned products. Greenberg Financial Group is paid cash by or receives
some economic benefit (including commissions, 12b-1 fees and/or transaction fees) from a non-client
in connection with giving advice to clients. Greenberg Financial Group does not directly or indirectly
compensate for client referrals.
Investment advice is provided, with the client making the final decision on investment allocation.
Greenberg Financial Group is an introducing broker dealer and does not act as a custodian of client
assets. Greenberg Financial Group places trades for clients under a limited power of attorney. A
written evaluation of each client's initial objective and risk tolerance is provided to the client in the
form of an investment profile. Periodic reviews are also communicated to provide reminders of the
specific courses of action that need to be taken. More frequent internal reviews occur but are not
necessarily communicated to the client unless immediate changes to strategy are recommended.
Other professionals (e.g., lawyers, accountants, insurance agents, etc.) are engaged directly by the
client on an as-needed basis. Conflicts of interest will be disclosed to the client in the unlikely event
they should occur.
The initial meeting, which may be by telephone, is free of charge and is considered an exploratory
interview to determine the extent to which investment management may be beneficial to the client.
