Firms and offices heating upHow this is measuredA departure is an advisor’s registration moving to a different firm. Moves inside the same firm group, moves that follow a firm merger and moves between one enterprise’s own registrations are removed. A move shows up once the new registration is filed, so the last month or so is undercounted.Heating up, steady and cooling compare the annualized departure rate of the last two quarters with the firm’s own prior three years. That is a reading of what has happened, not a forecast of what will.
Measured current state, not a forecast. Which major firms are losing advisors faster than their own history, and which branch offices lost the largest share of their people in the last six months.
Trend basis: measured: mean annualized departure rate of the last two quarters vs the prior three years; not a forecast; last ~30 days undercount. As of 2026-09-23.
