Why This Matters
A marketing brand is the name a financial advisor uses with clients. It is often different from the SEC-registered firm that is legally responsible for their conduct and your money.
When you search for “World System Builder,” you won't find it on the SEC or FINRA websites. That's because the regulatory entity is CETERA INVESTMENT ADVISERS LLC. Any disclosures, complaints, or regulatory actions are filed under the firm — not the brand.
