Hybrid Registered Investment Advisor
The hybrid RIA option is available to transitioning advisors who would like the benefits of being with an independent RIA and the need to maintain a broker/dealer affiliation. Multiple custodial options are available including LPL. With this option, The Wealth Consulting Group acts as the Registered Investment Advisor and the OSJ for you as a registered representative under LPL Financial as the Broker/Dealer.
Office of Supervisory Jurisdiction Only
As an investment advisory representative of the LPL corporate RIA, you can partner with WCG to handle your compliance oversight. With this option, LPL Financial acts as the Registered Investment Advisor, and WCG acts as your OSJ and investment advisor representative under LPL Financial.
Registered Investment Advisor Only
For advisors wishing to provide fee-only advice to their clients, you can partner with WCG for an RIA-only affiliation with multiple available custodial options. There is no affiliation with LPL Financial.
Other Considerations
Office Space
Many advisors associated with WCG own and manage their independent branch offices with our business partner support. Some advisors occupy branch offices that are owned and operated by WCG while maintaining complete ownership of their business. Compensation models may differ depending on the scenario.
Embrace Your Independence or Ours
Our advisors have DBA’s for their businesses or have an option to adopt the WCG brand.
