Broker Dealer Support

Experience broker dealer support that transcends expectations.

Even though you are independent, you are not alone. We know the challenges and opportunities – first-hand – that come with being independent. We promise to support you in every way, from a dedicated Transition Team, impeccable back office support and personalized service to fast and proactive compliance review, and ongoing education, training, marketing support, networking opportunities and practice development. We know that our success can be measured by the success of each of our independent advisors, so we are committed to making sure you grow and your clients flourish.

• Outstanding Back Office Support. SSN is one of the few remaining broker dealers in America that offers a choice of two industry-leading clearing firms – National Financial Services LLC and Pershing LLC. Our Operations Specialists are experienced with both clearing platforms to keep your staff focused on the growth of your practice instead of back office tasks.
  
  
• Trading. Our dedicated Trading Team has extraordinary expertise in all areas of the equity and fixed income markets. You will find a team trained to respond immediately to your call, give you quotes, answer market questions or construct competitive offerings of municipal, corporate or government bonds. We take pride in the fact that our Trading Team consistently ranks in the highest percentile of annual representative satisfaction surveys for fast and knowledgeable service.
  
  
• Research Center. Through our relationship with National Financial Services, LLC, we deliver one of the most comprehensive research offerings available – at preferred pricing. Use Research Center to gain access the names you trust including Argus, Morningstar and Thomson Reuters.
  
  
• Practice Management. We know the importance of developing your skills as a business owner and CEO, so we have established alliances with numerous companies that offer discounts on a broad array of products and services. You have access to practice management resources that include coaching, marketing and branding, and performance reporting.
  
  
• Prepackaged Seminars. Sharing of knowledge and ongoing education are essential to every financial professional. We offer a variety of pre-packaged seminars to educate your existing clients, attract new ones, and promote your financial expertise. Each seminar kit comes with a comprehensive planning guide, instructions on delivering an exceptional presentation, PowerPoint with back up overheads, handouts and promotional flyers.
  
  
• Turnkey Client Communications. It’s important to keep your clients in the know, especially in uncertain economic times. Use our turnkey compliance-approved client communications tools such as letters, articles, newsletters, and sales material to communicate with your existing clients as well as to attract prospects.
  
  
• Branded Marketing Materials. As an independent business owner in a competitive industry, we know the powerful impact that developing and marketing your unique brand can have. Our team of Marketing Specialists will help you develop your brand, identify your key sales and marketing messages, and create brochures, ads, PowerPoint presentations, website templates and more to market your branded practice in your area.
