RIA Transition Solutions
In addition to wealth management for individuals, Halpern Financial provides business transition solutions for RIA firms. RIAs often share some of the same challenges as their clients:
- How do I continue to grow in an increasingly difficult market environment?
- What is the best way to maximize the value of the asset I have worked hard to build—my business?
- How should I prepare for a transition to retirement or other ventures?
Halpern Financial has developed a platform to help RIAs meet these challenges. We offer the capacity to scale, tuck-in, or transition your business in a way that no roll-up firm can, without compromising the fee-only, independent structure you have worked hard to establish.
We work exclusively with small- to mid-size advisory firms that uphold a strict fiduciary standard. Our typical clients want to protect what they have built and/or monetize the value they have built in their business, including succession planning, increasing growth capacity, and providing security for their heirs.
