We're looking for the next breakaway. Is it you?

In our minds, the only way to achieve true independence is to breakaway and start your own RIA. We understand that there is a sense of security in having a team of thousands behind you – but the freedom you can gain and the legacy you can create from venturing out on your own is the ultimate success.

We want to help get you there.

Ready to Talk?

While getting started may feel overwhelming, owning your own business and brand, higher payouts, and having total control of your team and how you serve clients are well within your reach and worth taking the leap of faith.

You are closer to gaining autonomy and freedom than you may think.

If you’re unsure of where to begin, we’re here to help. We’ve helped RIAs across the country – from inception and launch to future expansion. We have a proven process and network of supportive partners to help you with:

  • Keeping a majority ownership stake and control of your RIA
  • Transition support and financing
  • Turnkey tech platform & back office
  • Access to investment research
  • Compliance outsourcing
  • And more

What made the other RIAs we’ve worked with special? They believed in themselves and the path forward with the support of WAGN. These firms were ready to invest in themselves; now it’s your turn.

We’re looking for the next great breakaway – could it be you?

Experience where it matters most

We started WAGN based on the realization that something was missing in the independent advisor space: Growth.

We’re experts in this field because we have run firms, built firms, grown firms, and know how to sell to firms. Now, we’re focused on helping the best-in-class independent advisors accelerate their growth and realize their potential.

WAGN was built by a team with more than 45 years of experience in this space. We have helped hundreds of firms across the country and some of the largest RIAs, aggregators, and asset managers. 

Our track record of success

We’ve helped other breakaways just like you achieve success and start their own independent firms. Our network of partners helps you with everything from managing the breakaway process and funding your start-up to forming the new entity, building needed infrastructure, and enhancing revenue capabilities.

We’re different. But don’t just take our word for it.
