Podcast: Mindy Diamond on Independence for Financial Advisors

A bi-weekly podcast series for financial advisors exploring the independent space

As a nationally recognized recruiter and consultant to financial advisors, Mindy Diamond has unmatched experience in introducing advisors to the independent space, an option that has greatly expanded yet remains somewhat of a mystery to many advisors. Her goal in this series is to dispel some myths, share some facts and to help advisors get better educated on the model without any concern over confidentiality or obligation.

While independence offers a great deal of freedom and flexibility, it’s not for everyone. Diamond explores the options available in the space, helping advisors to assess if it’s right for them. She offers comparisons between different types of independent models from Independent Broker Dealers (IBD) to Registered Investment Advisors (RIA) and Hybrid RIAs. Episodes will also include conversations with industry leaders and breakaway advisors who left the captive employee world for one where they could grow their advisory business in a way that aligned with their own goals.
