Each of the three advisors has more than 20 years of experience in the business.

The firm has made formal hiring offers totaling approximately $214 million as of June 30.

These and other firms are building brands that appeal to advisors. Here’s how.

The new recruits bolted from Morgan Stanley after nearly 20 years with the wirehouse and its predecessor firms.

The two advisors will name the team’s practice after their shared experience working for the military.

The new recruits came at the expense of wirehouse rivals Merrill Lynch and Wells Fargo.

The firm isn’t “the high bidder,” and that’s just fine, according to Paul Reilly.

David Ahlquist is the latest addition to the firm’s growing employee broker-dealer.

Two perennial champions retained their top ranks in 2019 — but the aging demographic poses challenges for all firms, according to J.D. Power.

Recruitment is ongoing — not a one-time sales pitch.

The combined AUM of the top 10 companies has soared by 60% to more than $770 billion over the past five years.

The independent broker-dealer has seen significant growth in the last three years.

The St. Louis-based firm is looking to hire advisors from wirehouses, says head of recruitment John Pierce.

One team set up an independent practice while the other signed on with the firm’s employee broker-dealer.

The firm agreed to “remove language that formed the basis of the alleged misrepresentations."

Recent lawsuits highlight the unpredictable nature of litigation in a post-Broker Protocol world.

The fast-growing firm now has more than 100 brokers.

The recruits also opened a new branch for the regional BD.

One advisor has more than three decades of experience in the business.

Despite a great year, firms don't see fit to rest on their laurels. Instead, they're preparing and adjusting to falling traditional revenue and rising expenses.
