Understand IFA before creating an account.

A concise introduction to the ideas behind the workspace, how to interpret its outputs, and where judgment is still required.

🧩

What an IFA Score means

The IFA Score is a comparative research summary built from several visible categories. It helps you compare candidates inside IFA; it is not a probability of success, price target, or forecast of future return.

🎯

Why strategies change the view

Investors ask different questions. A strategy changes which research categories receive greater emphasis so that a value, growth, income, quality, or balanced question can produce a different comparison.

🧭

Portfolio context matters

A stock can look attractive by itself and still create concentration, cash, or position-size concerns inside a portfolio. Portfolio views help place an individual candidate in that broader context.

🧮

Retirement tools compare scenarios

Roth conversion and Social Security tools show how different user-supplied assumptions can change a modeled result over time. They are educational projections, not tax-return calculations.

⏱️

Market information can become stale

Prices, company fundamentals, analyst estimates, and news can update at different times or be temporarily unavailable. A displayed timestamp and current brokerage information should be checked before acting.

🤖

AI explanations have limits

AI-generated text can summarize available information and help frame questions, but it can be incomplete or incorrect and should not replace primary sources or professional advice.

Important boundary

Education and decision support—not a promise or instruction.

IFA does not know every aspect of your financial situation. Its research, rankings, scenarios, and explanatory text should be combined with current source information and advice from qualified professionals when appropriate.
