"Good technology is a crucial part of launching an advisory firm in today's environment. Yet most advisors starting a firm often struggle with the dozens of CRM, financial planning, performance reporting, and other software packages they need to test to make good technology decisions," said Moore, founder of Serenity Financial Consulting, in a statement. "Our goal is to streamline that process for advisors by offering a turnkey platform of core technology solutions, at an extremely appealing price, so advisors can get their firm up and running in a matter of weeks instead of months."
Kitces added that most advisor platforms "try to support their advisors with what turns out to be an overwhelming number of vendors and choices, due to all the different business models, different clientele and different needs." With the XY Network, "we are taking a laser-like focus on how to support younger advisors building a younger clientele with a unique business model that can serve them effectively, which allows us to identify exclusive technology partners that provide the best solution for the needs of our members."
