Independence for Financial Advisors

The Independent Advisor’s Legacy: Planning for the End Game

Posted by Mindy Diamond

Every independent business owner will reach a point where gaining scale and solving for continuity and succession become paramount. It’s then that they begin to wonder: What does my firm’s end game look like?

Nathan Bachrach

Perspective breakaways and independent business owners alike often ask us about the long-term, bigger picture potential for their firm. How do I solve for succession and continuity? Why would someone sell? Who are the buyers? And is there a market for an RIA like I’m considering launching?

In this episode, Mindy speaks with Nathan Bachrach of Cincinnati-based Simply Money Advisors. Last year, Nathan’s $700mm firm merged with Hanson McClain, a California RIA, to form a $3.3B enterprise. So Nathan is well-positioned to discuss the answers so many independent business owners ponder:

  • What could a merger solve for?
  • What is the introduction and courting process like?
  • Why use a private equity firm?
  • How do clients react to the news?
  • Does the client experience change after a merger?

For advisors looking for their next step, Nathan says it best: “Run your business every day as if you’re selling it tomorrow.” By being laser-focused on his firm’s profitability and economics, he built a legacy for himself, his family, his clients and his staff—one that will continue to provide for years to come.

      Chris Cooke

    • Every advisor at a brokerage firm should listen to this podcast. I’m convinced that most advisors don’t realize their real value. Do your research. You deserve your true value and going out on your terms. It’s your life’s work. Even if you don’t transition to independence, know your value and options in order to make an educated decision.
