Disclosures are events reported to regulators, such as customer disputes, regulatory actions, employment separations, or financial events. Some are resolved, denied, or contested — a disclosure is not a verdict. We recommend asking an advisor directly about any disclosure on their record.

Disclosures on record.

Disclosures can be potential red flags, including customer disputes, regulatory fines, employer terminations, bankruptcies, judgments, liens, or certain criminal activities. Check for any disclosures as part of your thorough research when choosing an advisor.

Why is a state registration marked "Terminated"? When a firm registers with the SEC (usually after managing $100M+ AUM), it often withdraws separate state firm registrations unless required by that state. The firm can still serve clients there through its individually registered Investment Advisor Representatives (IARs).

Other business activities

Information obtained from regulatory filings. Advisors can request corrections through their firm or regulator.

Outside business activity is any business or activity undertaken by an advisor that is outside the scope of their relationship with their firm (e.g., consulting services, real estate, freelance work, teaching, etc.). Investors should stay informed about these activities to ensure no conflicts of interest.

Andrew E. Canter is the owner of The Canter Group, Inc. DBA Canter Companies, a firm found at 7825 Fay Ave, Suite 140, La Jolla, CA 92037. Canter Companies provides real estate services (including brokerage, development, and private equity transactions) to clients. Mr. Canter has been an owner of Canter Companies since June 2006. He devotes approximately 50% of his time to this business (25% of which may fall within securities trading hours). From time to time, he may offer clients advice or products from these activities, and clients should be aware that these services may involve a conflict of interest. The Canter Group operates a range of businesses through controlled entities, collectively referred to as the "Canter Companies," described below. The Canter Companies' activities may be material to the business of Canter Wealth and its clients, particularly if clients of Canter Wealth also use the services of one more of the Canter Companies. Canter Wealth Advisory clients should be aware that when they are using the services of affiliated entities of Canter Wealth, such services are not provided by Canter Wealth, are subject to separate contractual arrangements, and are not part of the advisory services provided by Canter Wealth. Moreover, the protections afforded to a client under applicable investment advisory laws and regulations generally do not apply to the services provided by non-advisory affiliates. The referral arrangements between Canter Wealth and its affiliates and vice versa may present conflicts of interest since personnel associated with the Canter Companies may have a financial incentive to recommend affiliates over other unaffiliated firms. Canter Wealth recommends clients use these related entities' services and products, and certain persons associated with the Canter Companies may refer their non-advisory clients to Canter Wealth. Through these related entities, employees, management personnel, and Canter Wealth owners receive additional compensation, including a portion of the advisory fees paid to Canter Wealth. The following are affiliated businesses owned and operated by the Canter Companies: Canter Management, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Canter Group, is in the business of Real Estate Management. Canter Capital, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Canter Group, seeks investment opportunities related to Venture Capital, Private Equity, and Private Real Estate Investments. Canter Development, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Canter Group, is a real estate developer currently active in the San Diego market. Canter Brokerage, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Canter Group, is a licensed real estate broker. Mr. Canter is a licensed real estate broker in the state of California (CA Real Estate License # 01792053, licensing effective 2007); he conducts real estate sales for Canter Brokerage. He devotes 1% of his time to this activity during securities trading/securities non-trading hours. As a Realtor, he identifies homes for clients, negotiates purchase prices, refers them to other Realtors as necessary, and finalizes home sales. Andrew is the Principal of Canter international, LLC, an investment-related entity located at 655 West Broadway, Suite 1650, San Diego, CA. He has held this position since 2006 and devotes less than 5 hours/month to this business (0 during securities trading hours). His duties are those of a passive investor. Mr. Canter is also a partial owner of Case Escrow, a full-service independent escrow company located at 853 Camino Del Mar #101, Del Mar, CA 92014. Andrew has been an owner of Case Escrow since 2012 and presently devotes approximately 5% of his time to this business (generally outside of securities trading hours), in a high-level supervisory capacity.
