2025September 13, 2012, 5:09 am -- /EPR NETWORK/ -- CSH CAPITAL announced today that it has attracted record 47 breakaway brokers in the first quarters of this fiscal year, a nearly 20 percent increase from the same time last year. Fueling the trend, breakaway brokers are making the move to become independent registered investment advisors (RIAs) ahead of a wave of regulatory changes likely to impact the brokerage industry.
"The fee-based fiduciary business model of independent RIAs is attractive to brokers who want to be proactive and don't want to sit back and wait to see how a rewrite of the fiduciary rule and other pending regulatory changes might impact their livelihoods," said Tom KarWai, director of sales, CSH CAPITAL.
"Going independent by establishing a firm or joining an existing RIA is a preferred path for advisors, especially as more investors turn to the independence and objectivity of the RIA model for help managing their wealth."
