Menninger & Associates Financial Planning Joins LPL Financial

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LPL Financial LLC announced today that Menninger & Associates Financial Planning has joined LPL Financial’s broker-dealer, RIA and custodial platforms. The team reported having served approximately $155 million in advisory, brokerage and retirement assets*, and joins LPL from Cetera.

Financial advisor Michael Menninger CFP®, founded the business in 2000 after shifting from a career as an environmental engineering consultant. He hired his first employee in 2014 and the Norristown, Pa.,-based team has grown to include five additional advisors and two support staff.

“We work together as one firm, taking a team approach based on the fundamentals of financial planning,” Menninger said, noting that his goal is for all of the firm’s advisors to have Certified Financial Planning credentials. “Further, we strongly believe that financial education and knowledge are powerful. When we provide clients with a list of strategies, we want them to understand why we are making those specific recommendations, because then they are more likely to embrace them.”

After extensive due diligence, Menninger determined LPL would be the best fit for his business moving forward. The team believes LPL will provide freedom to make their own choices and operate on their own terms. Menninger also appreciates LPL’s integrated capabilities and resources, both for his team and their clients.

“LPL will enable us to provide elevated experiences for our clients, from statements to account view,” Menninger said. “We anticipate the technology and software will make it easier for our clients to access all of their financial information and performance in one place.”

Menninger also said the move to LPL opens the door to bring on additional advisors to add more depth for succession planning and business continuity. “LPL is a large organization with a great reputation, so our goal is to connect with other advisors who may be interested in being part of our team. We’ll provide the infrastructure and training so they could join our group and be effective from day one. It’s important that my clients know this team will be around for decades to come to help their children and grandchildren through legacy planning.”

Scott Posner, LPL Executive Vice President, Business Development, added, “We extend a warm welcome to Mike and the entire team at Menninger & Associates Financial Planning. This multigenerational team is an experienced and successful group, and we are excited they chose LPL to help them maximize their growth potential. With our market leadership position, we’re committed to making ongoing investments in the technology and resources that will enable advisors to address the evolving needs of their clients and build businesses with long-term value.”
