To our valued clients,
I am so happy to share an exciting update about the growth of our team and company.
Over the last 24 years, I have collaborated closely with my colleagues, Derek Ferriera, Abiel Acosta, and Derrick Nguyen, on best practices around financial planning and serving our clients on the deepest level. Over time, it became clear that we shared more than just best practices – we share core values, and a vision for how our combined strengths can help you and your families truly prosper.
Together, we realized that while our impact starts with helping you achieve financial independence, it transcends by helping you create a family succession plan rooted in values that inspire a legacy of growth and well-being for generations to come.
Having invested over 500 hours since 2020 developing our Vision, Service Models, Team, and Culture, we’re happy to formally announce the creation of Prospera Succession Partners!
For some of you, this comes as no surprise since I have been sharing about our developing partnership in recent meetings. On the other hand, the news of Lincoln National Corporation selling its wealth management division to Osaic, Inc. came as a surprise to us all. The timing of this announcement with the rebranding to Osaic FA is coincidental as Prospera Succession Partners has been in the works for years.
We’re excited to share more about how the expansion of our team strengthens our impact in your lives. It’s likely you have already met some of our Partners and Advisor Associates, while others may be new to you, and we’d like to introduce you!
