Recruiting

Upon closing, the deal will push Wealth Enhancement’s advisor head count beyond 70 financial planners.

The No. 1 IBD drew in a team composed of both CPAs and advisors.

The advisors join the regional firm from Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo.

The four-advisor practice joined the No. 1 IBD after its CEO pledged to transform the company’s culture.

The regional BD has picked up 15 advisors this month alone.

Firms’ head counts show how they’re responding to a challenging time in which experts predict the number of advisors to fall in coming years.

Each of the team’s members had 15 years or more experience working at the wirehouse.

The tax-focused IBD is betting on a switch to Fidelity and Envestnet while undergoing a cultural shift.

This is the third such suit the bank has filed against former advisors in recent months.

The deal with the family-run independent insurance firm followed record sales in fixed-index annuities.

The regional broker-dealer’s head count jumped up to 1,824 in the third quarter.

The firm’s recruiting streak continues with this latest wirehouse hire.

The new hires build on the firm’s recent recruiting successes.

The new recruits joined from Bernstein where they serviced ultrawealthy families.

Stratos Wealth and other OSJs are offering more types of affiliation and equity deals in a bid to stem a competitive threat.

A total of 155 new advisors have joined Ameriprise in the last two quarters, and they keep coming.

Two wirehouse advisors left the Charlotte branch one Friday afternoon, for separate firms.

Planners ranging from sole practitioners to the largest OSJ enterprises welcomed the CEO’s comment that the firm's culture was not aligned with its strategy.

The wirehouse has been hemorrhaging talent over the last few months.
