A nationally ranked independent broker-dealer where advisors keep 100% of their book, lean on a real support team, and grow with people who actually pick up the phone.
We don't sell shelf space. We sell a team that picks up the phone, technology that doesn't slow you down, and a transition that doesn't blow up your practice.
A named transition team, in-house compliance, and a virtual assistant program. No tickets, no run-around — actual humans who know your book.
How support works →An integrated stack across CRM, planning, performance reporting, and client portal — so your team spends time on advice, not on duct tape.
See the stack →Done-for-you content, compliant ad templates, and an in-house creative team. We help you grow — not just stay compliant.
Read advisor playbooks →W-2, 1099, OSJ, RIA, hybrid — we structure around how you actually work, not the other way around.
Compare business models →90-day playbook with assigned ops, client-communication scripts, paperwork concierge, and post-move check-ins. Advisors land standing up.
Watch transition story →Two national conferences, regional huddles, and an active advisor network. Independence without working alone.
See community →Two national conferences, regional huddles, and an advisor network built for real collaboration — not just a name on a roster.






Most advisors don't leave their broker-dealer because of payout. They leave because their team can't keep up. Watch how IFG advisors transitioned, grew their book, and got their nights back.
"I'd shopped four broker-dealers. IFG was the only one where the senior team called me back personally. That alone told me what kind of place this was."

"The transition team mapped every client account, drafted the letters, and handled the paperwork. I moved 94% of my book in 60 days."

"I run my practice, my way. But when I have a complex case, I have actual people to call — not a portal."

"The level of independence IFG gives you is real — not marketing copy. I set my own fees, build my own model, and still have a full compliance team behind me."

"I was nervous about compliance after leaving my wirehouse. IFG's in-house team had my marketing approved in days, not weeks. It's a completely different experience."

"First year at IFG I grew revenue 31%. Better payout, better tech, and a BD that actually wants you to succeed — it compounds fast."
