Five paths into partnership.
The right structure depends on where you are today and where you want your practice to be.
Retiring advisors
Succession on your timeline.
You have spent years building relationships and want them in good hands when you step back. We plan the transition with you, introducing clients gradually and keeping your staff in the picture.
You decide how long you stay involved, from a short handoff to a multi-year phased transition.
Solo advisors
A tuck-in that gives you back your time.
You want to keep advising clients but spend less time on compliance, billing and technology. As a tuck-in, you join our platform and our team takes on the operational work.
Your clients keep working with you, with a larger team supporting them.
Small RIAs
A merger of firms with shared values.
Your firm is established and growing, but scale is getting harder to build alone. A merger combines resources in compliance, technology and investment research while keeping the client relationships intact.
Principals can participate in a defined path to equity in the combined firm.
Breakaway advisors
An independent fiduciary home.
You are considering leaving a wirehouse or broker-dealer to work as a fiduciary. We help plan the move, including custodial transitions and new account paperwork, and provide the platform you need to serve clients from the first day.
Any move should account for your current agreements. We encourage advisors to review them with their own counsel before taking any steps.
Advisors without a back office
Keep your book. We provide the infrastructure.
You have a client base and strong relationships, but no operations team behind them. We supply the systems, staff and compliance framework so you can focus on advice.
The arrangement can stay simple or grow into a fuller partnership over time.
