Independence FAQs

How can MoneyBlock benefit my business?

We've invested in our own proprietary platform to provide the necessary tools and flexibility that allows you to better manage the technology expense of running your business. Our goal is provide the features you need to provide value to your clients while also helping you run your business as efficiently as possible.

How can you make my transition painless?

No transition is pain-fee, but our relationship and back office staff has assisted hundreds of RIAs transition their business between broker-dealers. They understand the challenges and risks associated with the process, and work with you to understand your specific needs.

As a small asset manager, how can MoneyBlock help me?

Small RIAs and asset manager are often overlooked by the "big box" brokerage firms. So in addition to our proprietary platform that caters to most RIAs, we also offer customized trading and execution solutions for asset managers requiring a more sophisticated approach.
