The traditional wirehouse model of US brokerage and advisory is facing a time of profound change. Its adviser workforce is increasingly expensive and approaching retirement. The advisers themselves are dissatisfied with cumbersome legacy technology platforms, complicated pay structures and the lack of open architecture.
