Key Terms

broker-dealers, wealth management

2 terms

broker-dealers financial

"supporting independent advisors through its affiliated broker-dealers"

A broker-dealer is a firm or individual that helps people buy and sell securities and may also trade those securities for its own account. Think of it like a market clerk who can either match a buyer with a seller or sell items from the shop’s shelves; investors rely on broker-dealers to execute trades, custody assets, provide market access and advice, and their actions and fees can affect trade speed, cost and potential conflicts of interest.

wealth management financial

"impact across the wealth management ecosystem"

Wealth management is a professional service that helps people organize, grow and protect their money by combining investment advice with tax planning, retirement preparation and long-range financial planning into a single, ongoing strategy. Think of it as a personal financial coach and project manager who coordinates specialists and choices to meet life goals. For investors, it matters because it aligns investments with objectives, manages risk and seeks better after-tax outcomes over time.
