CEO is right to resist the temptation of a more drastic overhaul.

The former underdog is settling into its role as one of Wall Street's more well-balanced firms.

Wealth management has “only increased in relevance as it’s continued to grow,” CFO Jon Pruzan said.

The firm also reported that its advisor ranks were up 2% year-over-year, boosted by its training program.

Fourth-quarter profits ticked up a modest 1% year-over-year to $659 million even as number of advisors dropped 2%.

While banks will likely benefit from the lower rate, the new law requires charges in the near-term.

One strategy to enhance financial prospects is to get a part-time job via the gig economy.

Wall Street doesn’t think corporate America will have a hard time coming up with those employee bonuses that were promised after taxes were slashed.

Broker headcount declined to 6,861, a 3% drop from 7,087 in the year-ago period.

CEO Dan Arnold said the acquisition of NPH’s assets will serve as a model for the future.

The fast-growing firm has added 300,000 square feet of office space to its headquarters.

CEO Jim Cracchiolo reported record client assets and a sharpened focus under the fiduciary rule.

The company also said that its advisor ranks are growing.

As a result of CEO James Gorman’s strategic moves, the firm earns the biggest share of revenue from wealth management of the six biggest U.S. lenders.

The company's broker headcount declined slightly, but it remains the largest wirehouse by number of advisors.

The firm's advisor ranks increased slightly during the third quarter, ending three consecutive periods of decline.

The bank is testing several trading and investing platforms and will be talking about "what might or might not work," CEO Jamie Dimon said during its third-quarter earnings call.

Adviser headcount continued a slow, but steady decline, slipping to 6,915 from 7,116 for the year-ago period.

CEO Dan Arnold said advisers’ uncertainty about the fiduciary rule is waning.

"This is a challenging time for the firm with the DoL rule," CEO Paul Reilly said.
