5 8 9 A Hybrid Advisor Has the Best of Both Worlds A Hybrid advisor is registered with both a broker/dealer and an RIA. Dual registration allows independent financial professionals to provide commissionable products through a broker/dealer and fee-based advice under the RIA. Advisors may choose to leverage a corporate RIA or establish an independent RIA firm that they own and operate for all their fee-based business. HYBRID RIA MODEL Why is the Hybrid model important? Clients, particularly high-networth clients, are becoming more sophisticated and their needs are becoming increasingly complex. A Hybrid advisor is better suited to offer a broad range of advice or commission strategies and solutions. A Hybrid advisor can provide sound guidance on all aspects of a client s financial position, including wealth management and intergenerational transfer.

6 10 HYBRID RIA MODEL HYBRID RIA MODEL 11 There s the Hybrid Model Expert. Then There s Everyone Else. The Hybrid Advice Model: We Perfected It. Hundreds of successful advisors across the country have already joined Triad Advisors to experience a comprehensive menu of products, technology systems and wealth management solutions. Our goals are simple: meet the needs of successful, independent financial advisors; build long-term relationships based on mutual trust, unparalleled service and true business flexibility; and provide the products, insight, support and culture needed to flourish. The investment advisor industry is undergoing a dramatic shift. Clients want more than advice. They re looking for comprehensive wealth management. We anticipated the need to support Hybrid advisors when we opened our doors in Our advisors are uniquely positioned to meet the needs of clients with customized, innovative wealth management solutions. We ve created the processes, products and teams to support the Hybrid model. Unlike many other broker/dealers, Triad Advisors focuses on the Hybrid RIA. Some Hybrid advisors choose to leverage the benefits of a corporate RIA. Many, however, prefer to operate and have equity in their own RIA, and we built a support structure to meet that desire. More than 80% of our advisors the highest percentage in the industry manage fee-based assets through a separate RIA. The Triad Hybrid model offers advisors the best of both worlds: REGISTERED AS BOTH AN RIA AND A BROKER/DEALER REPRESENTATIVE This dual registration allows advisors to operate both a fee- and a commission-based practice. RIA Hybrid RIA Broker/ Dealer Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, we are a broker/dealer, SEC Registered Investment Advisor and Insurance Agency. Triad was founded in 1998 by three principals with more than 90 years of combined experience in the securities industry. Fees An open architecture RIA platform for asset management and financial planning. Advisors can work under one of our two corporate RIAs or manage their own RIA. Commissions A comprehensive broker/dealer platform for commission-based securities, insurance and alternative investment business. More than 80% of our advisors are Hybrid RIAs. Triad is a leader in the fee-based business with close to 50% of gross revenues derived from it. Hybrid firms tend to attract more affluent clients, possess higher client retention rates, and generate more revenue than fee-only advisors.

7 12 HYBRID RIA MODEL HYBRID RIA MODEL 13 The Triad Advisors Difference. Platform Flexibility We allow partnerships with multiple RIA custodians, including NFS, Fidelity, Schwab and TD Ameritrade. Access We give advisors direct access to senior management across all departments. RIA Expertise We are the Hybrid RIA model pioneer and category leader, with the highest concentration of Hybrid advisors in the industry. The Hybrid model approach allows our advisors to deliver a broader range of solutions, helps strengthen client relationships, builds scale, drives revenue and increases the value of the business. Triad Advisors provides advisors with the following benefits: Most broker/dealers offer a highly limited choice of custodians. Other broker/dealers have layered service models that feature junior-level support and lengthy processing times. Most broker/dealers require their advisors to use the corporate RIA structure and don t offer any choice of clearing firms. Financial Stability Alternative Investments Investment Banking & Capital Markets We have a successful, long-term track record of growth in revenue and profitability. Triad operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ladenburg Thalmann, an investment bank founded in We offer access to a broad range of unique alternative investments to meet the needs of high-net-worth clients, who demand innovative, non-correlated solutions. We provide access to syndicate, investment banking, M&A services, asset management and institutional research. This varies among firms. Many Hybrid broker/dealers are small with little depth of Most broker/dealers offer limited alternative investment choices. Few broker/dealers can provide access to investment banking or capital markets. capital and provide few services. Transition Services Technology RIA Compliance Consulting We create customized business transition plans supported by an experienced implementation team uniquely positioned to provide counsel and support for both fee and commission transition. With Triad, advisors have access to innovative technology solutions for trading, portfolio management, reporting and CRM. We offer in-house RIA compliance, regulatory consulting and E&O insurance for RIAs. Many broker/dealers are ill-equipped to handle the transition of an advisor s dually registered practice. Other broker/dealers have limited technology options that offer little flexibility or customization. Most broker/dealers, if they allow the use of an independent RIA at all, require the use of outside compliance consulting and separate E&O insurance at the advisor s own expense.

8 A 360 Approach to Wealth Management As an independent broker/dealer, our objective is to provide advisors with access to a broad offering of non-proprietary products and financial solutions to meet the ever-changing needs of clients. We are committed to providing advisors with best-in-class investment solutions, and our comprehensive menu of available products and services is extensive, completely unbiased and changes as the industry evolves.

11 ADVISORY SERVICES No Matter How You Hybrid Triad Advisors is the industry leader in supporting advisors offering both commission- and fee-based services. Triad offers a multitude of options for advisors to create and develop the fee-based side of their practice. Some firms are well-suited to establish an independent RIA, while others are better served leveraging a corporate RIA entity. No matter how you choose to set up your Hybrid practice, Triad presents a menu of services, solutions and consultative guidance to take your business to the next level. Independent RIA Corporate RIA

12 22 ADVISORY SERVICES ADVISORY SERVICES 23 One RIA Structure Does Not Fit All. There are three primary considerations when determining how to grow a fee-based practice: RIA structure, multiple or single custodians and bundled or a la carte technology. Selecting the RIA structure that best suits your current and future business plans is the first step on the Hybrid journey. With Triad, advisors may maintain or establish their own independent RIA entity or choose to work under one of Triad s corporate RIA entities. Choosing the right RIA structure Custodial Platform National Financial Services Schwab Institutional Fidelity Institutional Wealth Services TD Ameritrade Compliance Independent RIA Structure Corporate RIA Structure Multiple Custodians Single Custodian Triad Advisors RIA Triad Hybrid Solutions ADV Advisors partnering with Triad Advisors have four options: Independent RIA Structure Multiple Custodians Manage your own RIA with a range of custodial options.

13 24 ADVISORY SERVICES - INDEPENDENT RIA ADVISORY SERVICES - INDEPENDENT RIA 25 Independent RIA Roughly 80% of advisors working with Triad Advisors Broker/Dealer operate under an independent RIA. As the country s #1 Broker/Dealer for Hybrid RIAs, Triad delivers RIA owners ongoing consultative guidance as part of its core offering. Triad doesn t just accommodate independent RIA business, we actively support it. Leading Broker/Dealer for Hybrid RIA Firms Multiple Custodians Advisors with their own RIA might decide, instead, to leverage fee-only custodial platforms such as Schwab Institutional, Fidelity Institutional Wealth Services or TD Ameritrade for their fee-based business. In these cases, Triad provides oversight of the RIA activity while advisors develop their own investment management agreements, billing processes, services and transaction pricing relationship with their chosen custodial partner. Advisors may choose from approved technology and product providers to meet their unique practice management needs. Triad offers advisors in these scenarios educational, product, service and consultative support. Benefits of Establishing Your Own RIA For financial advisors looking to increase control over compliance, pricing and the client experience, establishing your own RIA may represent a significant opportunity. The benefits include: Control Costs Improve Revenue Gain Brand Ownership Build Scale Single Custodian Advisors with their own RIA may utilize Triad s Advisory Services platform and custodial relationship with National Financial Services (NFS) to service fee-based clients. The RIA maintains full ownership of the assets, while Triad provides advisors and their clients a single back-office experience using NFS for both commission- and fee-based assets. In addition, Triad s Advisory Services platform presents compelling compliance advantages and competitive pricing. See page 28, A Platform for Success, for more information.

14 26 ADVISORY SERVICES - CORPORATE RIA ADVISORY SERVICES - CORPORATE RIA 27 Corporate RIA Advisors may choose to utilize a corporate RIA structure and let Triad handle the regulatory aspects of RIA ownership such as ADV maintenance and regulatory audit preparations. Some advisors may prefer to make the corporate RIA a permanent home. Others may utilize a corporate structure until they have the time, resources and knowledge to establish their own RIA entity. Advisors may select from two corporate RIA options: Triad Hybrid Solutions Hybrid Solutions is a corporate RIA entity, allowing advisors access to fee-only custodial platforms such as Schwab Institutional, Fidelity Institutional Wealth Services or TD Ameritrade, while enjoying access to commissionable products and brokerage services through Triad Advisors Broker/Dealer.

They may provide financial planning and other consultative services under the corporate RIA. Triad Advisors RIA also provides a suite of approved consolidated reporting, financial planning and CRM options. The advisor has the freedom to select the technology solutions that best align with their financial resources, technical expertise and client expectations.
