Our infrastructure partner has been Commonwealth Financial Network®. It has been an amazing journey with them, and we are thankful for all they have done to help us become the successful firm we are today. Recently, Commonwealth announced that they were being acquired by a company called LPL.
After thoughtful consideration, we made the decision not to move forward with that transition and instead be moving forward in a new brand, which will be called Kintra Wealth. There will be plenty of future communication behind that name and branding, but ultimately, there are dozens of reasons we believe this to be in the best interest of you, the client, as well as the staff of Yellow Finch Financial.
Please know that we remain the same dedicated team you know and trust, with the same commitment to you, your family, and our entire community. We will simply be enhanced.
