Winthrop & Co. Information

Winthrop & Co. is an independently owned consulting firm that helps financial advisors and their teams plan and complete a change of firm or model: a move between wirehouses, regional firms and independent broker-dealers, a breakaway to an RIA, an RIA launch, or a succession plan. Over $50 billion in client assets has moved through Winthrop-advised transitions, and more than 100 advisory teams have made the move with the firm. The work starts with the advisor's own practice: what the book is built on, what current agreements allow, and what each channel would change for clients. Winthrop compares options from the whole market, negotiates terms, and manages the move from resignation through repapering, confidentially throughout. Winthrop also publishes data on where advisors are moving, firm by firm, in its State of Financial Advisor Movement reports and Knowledge Centers at winthropco.com. The firm pays Winthrop, and the advisor never pays. Boston · Miami
