Raymond James looks to extend its RIA roll-up success with FallLine deal that gets John Straus off the startup schneid

The St. Petersburg, Fla.-based broker-dealer connected with Steward and this time it gets play at making gains in two weak areas -- serving RIAs and ultra high net worth investors

Interesting iteration of a brokerage format, but plows no new ground on advisory services. The product focus does not bode well for professional standing of the user. Broker centricity does not make it compelling for the advisor. Financial services (prudent process), streamlining costs, a more modern approach to portfolio construction utilizing advanced technology is the DNA of advisory services, not yet another not tinkering with conventional brokerage at the margins. .If Dynasty goes deeper into advisory services, brokerage of any description can not compete on value, cost and the professional standing of the user.

As a former landlord of a Half-WAy house I wil. Say my $ is on John. The ONLY caveat is that conlinance is undervalued by many advisors. Until it is too late
