OPEN ARCHITECTURE TECHNOLOGY

Technology is an important consideration when selecting a broker/dealer. At FAA, every aspect of our broker-dealer platform is designed toward meeting the entrepreneurial needs of our financial adviser partners. We recognize the importance of efficiency, integration and your client relationships. While some competitors restrict advisers to their own proprietary software, FAA takes an open-architecture approach to technology.

Our goal is to provide the technology you need to grow your business and serve your clients more effectively. In addition to the basic technology platform provided through NFS, advisers are free to choose from a number of leading non-proprietary financial software vendors. Whether you are seeking CRM, practice management, performance measurement, account aggregation, website design and management, or financial planning software, you will find a wide range of industry leading vendors from which to choose. FAA has negotiated discounts with some vendors, and is constantly seeking out new vendor relationships that may add value to FAA's affiliates.  

Below is a sampling of the applications our financial adviser partners have deployed in their practices.
