Working with an
LPL Advisor
LPL Financial is a registered investment advisor and a broker/dealer, which means that an LPL advisor can offer you both investment advisory and brokerage services. We want to make sure you're aware of some of the important considerations to take into account when deciding which type of service best serves your investment goals and needs.
- Taking customer orders and executing securities transactions
- Making recommendations to buy, sell, or hold securities
- Custodial services
- Do you want or need an advisor to manage your investment portfolio? If so, an advisory relationship may be the right choice.
- Do you prefer, instead, to make the investment decisions yourself and are just looking for the advisor to execute on your orders? If so, a brokerage relationship may be the right choice.
- Do you want to engage an advisor in a fiduciary capacity with a duty to provide you ongoing investment services? If so, an advisory relationship may be the right choice.
- Do you desire, instead, only occasional advice or recommendations on a particular investments from an advisor? If so, a brokerage relationship may be the right choice.
- What do you expect will be the number and size of the holdings and transactions in your portfolio? If you plan to hold a number of securities and to be transacting and rebalancing the portfolio on a frequent basis, an advisory account may be the right choice. However, if you plan to buy only a few securities and follow a buy-and-hold strategy for a long period of time without ongoing advice from an advisor, a brokerage relationship may be the right choice.
- Do you wish to work with an advisor where the fee is consistent and not tied to the number or type of transactions in the account? If so, an advisory relationship may be the right choice.
- Do you prefer, instead, to pay your advisor for each transaction that you place? If so, a brokerage relationship may be the right choice.
