Cetera Financial Group is placing advisers at Summit and other firms
Independent financial adviser network Cetera Financial Group has taken steps toward relocating advisers at J. P. Turner & Co. after making the decision to close the firm. According to Investment News, about 50 percent of its current advisers have been invited to join Summit Brokerage Services Inc. while the remainder are reportedly being redistributed elsewhere among the firms under Cetera’s umbrella.
The firm’s closure may come as little surprise to those who are aware of its reputation. Investment News InvestmentNews reports Pershing LLC did not want to allow J.P. Turner on its platform. Pershing provides “global financial solutions” to advisers and broker-dealers, according to its website.
