GeoWealth has expanded its platform offerings through a new partnership with Halo Investing, allowing advisors to build and manage customizable structured note portfolios within a unified managed account (UMA). 

 

This collaboration gives advisors the ability to view, report, and bill at the individual sleeve level using GeoWealth’s proprietary sub-accounting system. Halo’s fintech platform, launched in 2015, has facilitated $12.5 billion in issuance, offering not just structured notes but market-linked CDs, buffered ETFs, and annuities, with robust tools for analysis, execution, and portfolio management. 

 

The partnership arrives on the heels of GeoWealth’s acquisition of First Ascent Asset Management, boosting its platform assets to $21 billion and reinforcing its tech-forward approach with half its workforce dedicated to product and engineering. As structured notes become more integrated into advisor strategies, this move positions GeoWealth to offer more diversification and income-generating opportunities for clients. 


Finsum: This timely expansion the growing demand for alternative fixed-income solutions amid shifting market conditions.

Many financial advisors endure frustrations with their broker-dealers to avoid the challenges of switching firms, even when better opportunities exist. 

  1. Declining service quality is a common issue, as both small and large broker-dealers struggle with staffing shortages and operational inefficiencies. 
  2. High costs, including elevated advisory fees, platform charges, and insurance expenses, further add to the burden, often without delivering corresponding value. 
  3. Financially struggling broker-dealers also fail to invest in technology, staffing, or advisor support, limiting growth potential. 

Advisors tied to outdated systems and inadequate resources risk falling behind competitors who embrace innovation. 


Finsum: Ultimately, remaining with an underperforming broker-dealer can stifle an advisor’s long-term success.
