Client Benefits

• Access to a full range of wealth management strategies
• Confidence in knowing their trusted professionals are working together to pursue the client’s goals
• Convenience, as they don’t have to be the mediator between professionals

Professionals’ Benefits

• A new revenue stream
• The ability to provide clients a holistic experience
• Potential for co-referral relationship where the advisor also refers clients back to the professional

How the Program Works

Professionals affiliate with the advisor and LPL, and refer clients to the advisor in return for shared compensation. There are two ways professionals can affiliate:

• Limited Securities Professional: This option is for professionals who are securities licensed and want to share in brokerage and/or advisory business and prefer to be more active in the client relationship.
• Promoter Professional: This option is for CPAs, attorneys, and other professionals who want to simply refer a client to a financial advisor in return for compensation. Professionals will be compensated for any new clients who open and maintain LPL fee-based investment accounts with an LPL financial advisor.
