ADVISOR MOVES: TOP INFLUENCING FACTORS IN 2020
In 2020 we saw our worlds flipped upside down and found ourselves adjusting to a new normal filled with face masks and working from the comforts (or not so comforts) of our homes.

How Long Should A Transition Take?
When advisors ask how long a transition takes, they’re usually asking about timing, logistics, and disruption. How long will the paperwork take? How long will client outreach last?
