Louis Diamond Quoted – By Diana Britton, WealthManagement.com – Private Advisor Group, a hybrid registered investment advisory and office of supervisory jurisdiction of LPL Financial, recently introduced a new affiliation model aimed at luring financial advisors out of the wirehouses and making it easier for them to move to true independence, with an assist along the way powered by PAG.
