The difference
| Typical aggregator | Fiduciary Alliance | |
|---|---|---|
| Your brand | Replaced or co-branded | YOURS, UNCHANGED |
| Your clients | Theirs at exit | ALWAYS YOURS |
| Your equity | Sold for cash + earnout | YOU STAY THE OWNER |
| Exit pressure | Built to flip in 5–7 yrs | LONG-TERM HOLD |
| Investment freedom | Mandated models | YOU CHOOSE |
| Ownership | PE-backed | ADVISOR-OWNED |
The FA difference
The platform
The tools a large RIA runs, configured and supported, working on your first day.
Performance reporting and portfolio analytics, including the client-facing statements you bring to review meetings.
Held-away and outside accounts pulled in automatically, so a client’s full balance sheet sits in one place instead of three.
A CRM built for wealth management rather than adapted from sales software. Client records, workflows, and pipeline in one system.
Client file storage with the retention and access controls compliance requires, reachable from wherever your team works.
Email, Teams, and the full Office suite, licensed and administered for you.
Our negotiated rates on the fintech you would be buying anyway. You pay network pricing instead of solo pricing.
Onboarding on each platform when you join, and a real person to call when something breaks.
We handle the back office so you can focus on clients, not paperwork.
We calculate, bill, and collect your quarterly advisory fees.
Your team gets trained on FA systems and the custodial platforms before you go live.
DocuSign account opening wired into the custodians, so client data is keyed once instead of on every form.
Relationships already in place with several custodians, so you can place a client where they fit rather than where you happen to be cleared.
When your ops person is out sick, on vacation, or has just quit, ours covers the desk.
We do the paperwork of moving your book: account transfers, client forms, and the sequencing that keeps assets from sitting in limbo.
Alternative investment platforms and the due diligence behind them, for clients who qualify.
An optional turnkey platform, CIO-led and fully supported. Use it or keep your own.
Models, execution, and reporting in one managed platform, so you don’t have to build an investment operation in-house.
A chief investment officer setting strategy, writing market commentary, and building portfolios, without one on your payroll.
Client-ready market updates, investment briefs, and portfolio commentary delivered under your firm’s brand, not ours.
From low-cost index portfolios to actively managed strategies, so you can match each client’s mandate rather than a house model.
Investment professionals with CFA and CMT credentials doing the research, security selection, and technical analysis.
Trade execution, rebalancing, and portfolio operations, so your time goes to clients instead of the trade desk.
Regulatory oversight, filings, and exam support, run by people who do it full time.
A chief compliance officer you can actually reach, backed by software that handles the filing calendar, document trail, and regulatory reporting.
We handle your registrations, ongoing filings, and Form ADV updates and amendments.
Preparation and support before and during a regulatory examination, including document requests and on-site interviews.
Compliance and ethics manuals kept current for wealth management, including the personal trading policies your staff signs.
Email and social media captured and reviewed, on the record-keeping schedule FINRA and SEC require.
Group errors and omissions coverage at network rates.
Annual certifications tracked and collected, plus routine review of account activity to catch issues early.
A structured growth program aimed at 20–30% annual growth, with the coaching, tools, and network behind it.
The five-part framework we coach against, aimed at 20–30% annual growth through client acquisition and deeper relationships.
We look at your book and show you which relationships earn their service model and which don’t.
How to ask happy clients for introductions, and how to build relationships with the accountants and attorneys who see your prospects first.
Client events and seminars you can run as-is, plus outreach aimed at the next generation of a family’s wealth.
Regular one-on-one sessions with advisors who have grown their own practices.
Advisors who compare notes on what’s actually working, instead of guessing alone.
Help hiring and keeping the people you need as the firm grows.
