A hybrid RIA managing $2.2 billion of client assets has switched broker-dealers, moving from LPL Financial to Securities America.

Mr. O’Mara believed that changing the broker-dealer platforms will allow the firm to be a true hybrid RIA.
“Given the changing industry landscape, we felt this new structure allows our firm to remain a true hybrid RIA, which we believe is the best platform for independent financial advisers,” said Mr. O’Mara in the statement. “This new solution provides advisers the support and services they need, while allowing them to maintain their independence and autonomy.”
