Founders & story · from LPL Financial’s own dossier

Founded in 1989 as a merger of two independent broker-dealers, LPL Financial grew to become the largest independent broker-dealer in the US by recruiting fee-based financial advisors away from wirehouses. Over the 2010s, LPL expanded its model to serve banks and credit unions as white-label wealth management partners. Through the 2020s, LPL accelerated its embedded finance strategy — adding banking, lending, insurance, and tax planning as products advisors can offer clients — transforming from a pure broker-dealer into a holistic financial services platform for advisors and institutions.
