Our mission is to serve as a transparent support system for entrepreneurial-minded advisors navigating the complexities of business ownership.

THREE UNIQUES
What makes us different.
At IAA, our commitment to three key pillars sets us apart: partnership, innovation, and transparency.
Partnership
We believe in true partnership. That means equipping you with the technology, resources, and dedicated hands-on support you need to thrive in your practice. Our comprehensive support and resources free up your time, allowing you to focus on what matters most – serving your clients.
Future-Focused
Our industry is contantly evolving, and so are we. IAA helps you stay ahead of the curve by embracing innovation, adapting change in real-time, and always keeping your long-term success in mind. We’ll help you navigate complexity, protect your clients’ well-being, and build a lasting legacy.
Transparency
With IAA, you’ll never be caught off guard. Our flat-fee pricing is straightforward, consistent, and free from hidden costs. Enjoy complete transparency, empowering you to plan ahead, manage expenses with confidence, keep more of what you earn, and invest more intentionally in your business.
“IAA provides comprehensive solutions to allow financial advisors to move into private practice. After all, being independent shouldn’t mean being alone.”
