Advisor Insights
Dynasty Network advisors share their perspectives on the benefits of full independence.
“ Having a succession plan is extremely important for advisors so that your clients feel comfortable knowing there is a plan for their family and the incredible wealth they have worked so hard for. We all know things can change and things can change quickly. Clients want to know that there is someone past you that can really be there to service them and help them. “
“ Succession planning excites me because it means building something that survives beyond me and that does good in the lives of our client families. We have clients who are second and third generation, with who my father was doing business when I was in grade school. What I look at what we’ve been able to do for their families, it’s incredibly gratifying. Knowing that my firm will continue to do that work, even when I’m long gone, really excites me. “
“ A succession plan is critically important for an advisor because it is for the clients. Clients expect us to be looking out for them and want to know beyond a doubt that there is someone that knows what their needs are. “
“ I think I’ve always been pretty happy, but I will say I am enjoying my profession a lot more today than I did prior to launching our own RIA. “
