The AmeriFlex Group, a Las Vegas-based hybrid RIA, has rolled out a proprietary financial planning solution, AmeriFlex Premier+, that allows advisory firm clients to look at the possible future outcomes that could result from their planning decisions.
The solution generates what-if scenarios related to situations such as retirement, divorce, the death of a spouse, or purchasing or selling a house or a business. AmeriFlex Premier+ also helps advisors provide their clients with customized service.
“For advisors, it’s a cost-effective and scalable solution that drives personalized planning guidance across a diverse client base," Thomas Goodson, AmeriFlex CEO and founder, said in a statement. “For clients, we’ve built a ‘bridge’ to easily envision the outcome of their planning goals.”
In late 2021, AmeriFlex launched SuccessionFlex, a program designed for advisors within five years of retirement. SuccessionFlex lets advisors enter a succession and continuity agreement that includes an option, prior to retirement, to sell 30% to 40% of their current revenue stream to AmeriFlex Group, with no minority ownership discount.
Since it was launched in 2019, AmeriFlex Group has grown to over 100 advisors and more than $6.4 billion in assets under advisement by buying minority stakes in RIAs.
“Ultimately, you just try to embrace collaboration,” said Greg Merrill of UBS.
Building on its Personal Office platform, NorthRock Partners' latest transaction brings more than $200 million in assets under management and five employees to the growing RIA.
