MarketCounsel was named a 2017 Industry Award winner in the 'Outstanding Achievement in Compliance Consulting' category by WealthManagement.com. The Industry Awards honor outstanding achievements by companies and organizations that support financial advisor success. The winners were announced at a gala reception on October 11th, 2017 at The Plaza Hotel in New York City.
MarketCounsel earned the award for its RIA Incubator™, a program that, since the firm's inception, has breathed life into the dreams of financial advisors who long for independence. "We are honored to be recognized by WealthManagement.com for our work in continuously evolving and improving the RIA Incubator to meet the exacting needs of the most successful financial industry executives turning to entrepreneurship," said Brian Hamburger, founder, president and CEO of MarketCounsel. "We consider ourselves among the foremost advocates for independent, entrepreneurial investment advisers, and we're proud of our legacy and just as proud of our recent developments." It's MarketCounsel's second WealthManagement.com Industry Award in three years.
MarketCounsel's RIA Incubator is designed to give visionary prospective owners the consulting and resources they need to confidently launch a firm that is custom-built from scratch to their precise specifications. Its discovery and exploratory work has made the vision come to life for so many. And once they decide to proceed, MarketCounsel has been an innovative force in developing strategies which have set the standard for addressing the unique needs of the country's most successful financial advisors transitioning from captive employment to entrepreneurship. Many of these unique transition strategies have been scaled for the benefit of financial advisors at all levels who are seeking independence.
