WHO IS LPL FINANCIAL

ABOUT LPL FINANCIAL

LPL Financial was founded with a pioneering vision to help entrepreneurial financial advisors establish successful businesses through which they could offer truly independent financial guidance and advice. Today we provide an integrated platform of proprietary technology, brokerage and investment advisory services to over 16,000 financial advisors as the nation’s largest independent broker/ dealer [1], making us a leading distributor of financial products in the United States. In addition, we support over 4,000 financial advisors with customized clearing, advisory platform and technology solutions. Even as our firm has grown over the years, we remain singularly focused on helping financial advisors to manage the complexity of their investment practices so they can better serve their clients in achieving important financial goals. And, because we do not offer proprietary products, LPL Financial enables the independent financial advisors, banks and credit union with whom we partner to offer their client advice. Our open-architecture platform provides our customers with access to thousands of commission, fee-based, cash and money market products manufactured by hundreds of third-party product sponsors.

approximately 670 regional and community banks and credit unions.

Other Affiliations
