If you are a CPA professional interested in expanding your firm’s offerings to wealth management and want to learn how the expertise of an outside partner can help you succeed, you won’t want to miss this session.
In this insightful session, our team will explore how launching a wealth management practice doesn’t require developing a full internal team from scratch. They will share insights on maintaining ownership and flexibility over your firm while leveraging our established trading, operations, training, and practice management infrastructure.

• What it actually takes to launch wealth management as a second line of business
• The operational lift of running a wealth business and how you can lighten that work
• Why hiring additional team members is often the slowest and riskiest path
• What functions CPA firms should not build themselves
• Trading and portfolio management, back-office operations, marketing, content, and advisor education
• How CPA firms can use external infrastructure to stay focused on clients
