Robert Moore joins executive board of Carson Institutional Alliance

Robert Moore, who resigned last week as president of LPL Financial, is joining forces with Ron Carson, one of LPL's largest affiliates, agreeing to serve on the board of Carson Institutional Alliance. Carson Institutional Alliance provides resources and support to advisers running their own practices who are seeking help with marketing, compliance and other operational needs. Mr. Carson runs the alliance along with his main business, Carson Wealth Management, which has just under $2 billion in assets under management. Mr. Moore stepped down as president of LPL to become chief executive of the asset management firm Legal & General Investment Management America. He had been at LPL since 2008, initially as chief financial officer. “Robert's been around for a really long time and is a veteran in running businesses and has a great vision for the future," Mr. Carson said. "He will be a true stakeholder in helping develop and improve strategic planning and vision. Robert has a wide skill set and we plan to use all of it.” “I look forward to contributing as a board member, drawing on both my past experience and my new position at LGIMA," Mr. Moore said in a statement.
