My financial planner won't advise me

Q. My financial planner refused to advise me about the proxy I got regarding one of the funds in which she placed me. Would it be a clear conflict of interest for her to do so?

A. Clear, no. Conflict, maybe. Since you don't describe the issue behind the proxy vote, I can only guess. However, it's not impossible to imagine a conflict. Suppose the issue affected the compensation of advisers who sell the fund? The best way to understand her position is to ask her to explain it to you.
