Independent Financial Group Continues Expansion of Wealth Management Platform
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) June 02, 2016 -- Independent Financial Group, LLC (IFG) has recently announced several changes to their Wealth Management platform to include additional advisory consultant resources, reduced advisory program minimums and the optimization of the firm’s technology chassis, AccessPoint, through its partnership with Envestnet.
“Very few independent broker-dealers offer what we do,” explains Kian Rafia, Senior Vice President of the firm’s Wealth Management division. He continues, “Sure, we have the resources to assist advisors with case consultation, book of business analysis and guidance regarding the most suitable investment platform, but we have franchised the ability to understand our advisors’ needs at a deeper level and introduced products with low account minimums.” He explains, “We believe that significant amount of assets are in play and eligible to be shifted from transaction oriented relationships into lower priced advisory investment products, as we consider the DOL Fiduciary rule. We further believe that passive and low-cost investment vehicles will set a standard against which many advisers' decisions are measured. As firms demonstrate that they are acting in their clients' best interests, those with variable compensation structures will face challenges. As a result, we are introducing advisory products that are diversified and suitable for smaller account minimums.” He concludes, “Our process and software improvements as it relates to client acquisition and reporting are just a few ways that we are enabling our advisors to scale their wealth management practice.”
