Should I leave my current broker dealer?

It’s one of the most important—and personal—questions a financial advisor can ask. Whether it’s frustrations with admin fees, limited platform flexibility, or just a gut feeling that you’ve outgrown your current firm, the decision to move shouldn’t be rushed. The right time to leave isn’t just about market timing—it’s about life timing.

If you’re weighing your options, we recommend this quick read: The Best Time for a Move—a blog and podcast episode that walks through key signals it may be time to explore a transition.

Which is the better path, independent or wirehouse?

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Going independent offers more control, higher payouts, and brand autonomy—but with added responsibilities. Wirehouses provide built-in infrastructure, brand recognition, and turnkey support—but often come with more restrictions and fees.

The real question is: Which model makes the most sense for your business goals and lifestyle?

To make a confident decision, you need to understand the economics behind both paths. Start by securing transition offers from top firms—independent and wirehouse—so you can compare side-by-side.

How much do I pay 3xEquity for transition consulting services?

Our services are 100% free to financial advisors. We don’t charge you a dime. If you decide to make a move, the new firm pays us a finder’s fee—similar to a recruiter. But unlike recruiters, we’re not tied to any one firm, so we work to find your best fit, not theirs.
