Fee-Based Advisory Services

Through NPA Asset Management, our registered investment advisor (RIA) platform we've built a comprehensive platform geared specifically to ensure success for advisors looking to build world class advisory businesses.

A few of our managed account programs include:

The Advisor Managed Program, for those whose core business approach to portfolio management is hands-on, is a platform designed primarily to permit advisors to assist clients in developing custom-tailored portfolios.

Our Managed Account Direct Program is appropriate for asset gatherers and offers a number of turnkey options to suit your business objectives. Portfolio management is outsourced, freeing yourself to spend more time focusing on your clients.

The Managed Account Custom Program enables our advisors to outsource the expertise of Lockwood Advisors (an affiliate of Pershing LLC), yet still maintain a hands-on approach by customizing certain investment selections based on your clients' specific goals and objectives.

In addition, NPA Asset Management has a number of strategic and tactical portfolio management solutions for advisors to choose from. Choices of some of the top Turnkey Asset Management Platforms (TAMP) include:

Between these two programs, advisors can help their clients get started on a wealth-building plan, avoid estate taxes, and everything in between.

	MoneyGuide Pro is a collaborative internet-based financial planning software program, with a client centered approach that will help advisors implement and maintain a planning strategy that the best meets their clients' financial goals. This software integrates with CRM (Redtail).
