Fee-Only Fiduciary Wealth Management for Families Investing $2 Million or More
Fintegrity is an independent, fee-only fiduciary registered investment adviser (CRD #292421) in Tenafly, New Jersey, serving families nationwide who invest $2 million or more. You work directly with founder Jeffrey Barnett — never a junior associate — and our firm’s performance policies and procedures are independently GIPS-verified. If you’re evaluating advisers for a substantial portfolio, this page lays out the four criteria that separate a genuine fiduciary from a salesperson, and how Fintegrity meets each one.
The four criteria every high-net-worth family should demand
The “best” adviser for a multimillion-dollar portfolio isn’t a matter of opinion — it comes down to four objective criteria. Bergen County alone has over 5,000 SEC- and state-registered financial advisers, but only a small subset meets all four at once.
Fee-only compensation.
The adviser accepts no commissions, kickbacks, or product-sales compensation — a structure followed by roughly 15–20% of U.S. advisers. "Fee-based" allows for sales incentives and is not the same as "fee-only." Fintegrity is fee-only: our only compensation comes from you, so our advice isn't shaped by what a product pays us.
Continuous fiduciary duty.
Many firms operate as "hybrids" — a fiduciary on one side, commission-based product sales on the other under a lower suitability standard. Fintegrity is a fiduciary 100% of the time, with no product-sales arm.
Independent, third-party performance verification.
Most advisers ask you to simply take their word for it. At Fintegrity, we hold ourselves to a higher standard. Our performance reporting has been independently verified for GIPS compliance by The Spaulding Group, for the period January 22, 2019 through December 31, 2025, giving clients the assurance that our track record is built on rigorous, institutional-grade reporting integrity. Fewer than 4% of investment advisers can say the same.
Direct access to a highly qualified principal.
No rotating team, no handoffs to junior staff. Every Fintegrity relationship is managed personally by Jeffrey Barnett — a Harvard MBA and former TIAA Managing Director.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum to work with Fintegrity?
A $2 million minimum for ongoing investment management. Standalone planning is available from $10,000 per project with a $5,000 credit towardthe first year’s investment management fees.
What does "GIPS-verified" actually mean?
It means an independent third party (The Spaulding Group) has verified that our performance reporting complies with the Global Investment Performance Standards. It’s an assurance about how we calculate and present results, not a guarantee of future performance.
Do I work with Jeffrey directly, or a team?
Directly with Jeffrey. Fintegrity is deliberately small — with fewer than 30 client households — so there are no handoffs to junior staff.
