Summary: Many financial advisors are shaking off the uncertainties of 2017 and getting ready to consider making the moves that they had put on hold. In my view, this means more advisors will be making strategic moves in the next year even as packages remain off the stratospheric highs of 2015-16.

Summary: Over the last five years, a number of advisors have left the wirehouses and other employee models to go independent. In fact, the asset market share of the wirehouses, national and regional broker/dealers, has declined from about 63 percent in 2011 to nearly 59 percent at year-end 2016, according to Cerulli Associates. At the same time, independent channels—independent broker/dealers, RIAs and hybrid RIAs—saw a jump in market share from about 37 percent in 2011 to 41 percent in 2016.
