When you build your own practice, you have the chance to shape a team that reflects your values. Over time, you can bring on other financial advisors, associates and support staff, expanding your reach and serving more clients.

  • Affiliated 1099 contract: Focus on wealth management and control your income. Benefits are not included, and some support services may be limited or available for a fee.

Either path allows you to align your business with your ambitions.
