LPL Financial LLC announced today that financial advisors Christina
McConnell, CRC®, ADPA™, Laura Long, CRPC™, AWMA™, MBA, and Jay
Tillman, CPWA®, CIMA®, CFP®, RICP®, CLU®, have joined LPL
Financial’s supported independence model, LPL Strategic Wealth
Services (SW). The team reported having served approximately $375
million in advisory, brokerage and retirement plan assets* and
joins LPL from Wells Fargo Financial Advisors Network (FiNet).
Based in Davidson, N.C., just north of Charlotte, 4Point Wealth
Management was founded in 2006 with a mission to champion each
client’s unique wealth journey and pursuit of financial
independence. The highly accredited team has more than 50 years of
industry experience, collectively, and they specialize in
comprehensive retirement planning, asset allocation analysis,
executive compensation and goals-based financial planning. They are
supported by longtime Client Services Manager Randi Derene.
“We are committed to being there for each client’s significant
life moments,” McConnell said, noting the name 4Point represents
the four cornerstones of wealth management: building, managing,
protecting and transitioning wealth. “We’ve grown our business
organically over the years by providing a high level of service and
developing meaningful relationships that go beyond investment
management.”
Over the years, the 4Point team has adapted to rising client
expectations and industry changes, including going independent in
2021. Seeking more autonomy and the freedom to expand their
business on their terms, they turned to LPL Strategic Wealth
Services.
“Remaining true to our core principles, we decided it was time
to evolve as a team and create a more ideal environment where we
have true independence, supported by a partner who shares our
values and client-first mentality,” Long said. “Partnering with LPL
allows us to be more transparent as we deepen our relationships
with clients. We have access to best-in-class technology and
strategic business resources, and we can now offer more
personalized investment options and enhanced service
experiences.”
The team chose to affiliate via LPL’s comprehensive supported
independence solution, LPL Strategic Wealth Services, which
combines the freedom and flexibility of entrepreneurship with
hands-on business services and support to help practices thrive,
both operationally and strategically. In addition to having access
to LPL’s innovative wealth management platform and sophisticated
resources, SW advisors benefit from a truly integrated service that
includes simplified pricing, technology and dedicated support to
launch their practice. After the transition is complete, SW teams
receive ongoing operations support managed by their team of
experienced professionals including a business strategist,
marketing partner, CFO and administrative assistant. Advisors have
one point of contact, a dedicated team and priority access to
advocacy and project management for complex business issues,
ultimately allowing them to stay focused on the enduring needs of
their clients and the culture and evolution of their practice.
“We really appreciate the invaluable support from LPL, including
guidance on business development, marketing strategies and
operational efficiency,” Tillman said. “We are excited about having
the autonomy to shape our practice the way we want and build a
culture that reflects our true values and commitment to our
clients. This new chapter allows us to spend more time serving our
clients, offering an array of new products, services, support and
tools for even more personalized financial strategies.”
Scott Posner, LPL Executive Vice President, Business
Development, said, “We welcome Christina, Laura, Jay and Randi to
the LPL Strategic Wealth Services community. It’s an honor to be
their chosen partner as they build out the next phase of their
ideal practice — one centered around putting their clients’ best
interests first. We are committed to delivering sophisticated
resources and an open-architecture platform that allow advisors to
use the tools that work best for their business. On top of that,
the LPL Strategic Wealth Services team will be there each step of
the way to provide an additional layer of comprehensive, modern
services and support. We look forward to a long-lasting and
successful relationship with 4Point Wealth Management.”
