Advisor Diversity and Inclusion


Everything we do at LPL Financial is to help advisors run a thriving practice that empowers individuals and families--from all backgrounds and experiences--to achieve their financial goals. That starts with celebrating and nurturing the growing diversity of our advisors, so they can better reach investors who need their valuable perspectives and guidance.

When you join LPL as an advisor, your unique journey and experience becomes one of your most powerful assets. Through our Advisor Diversity and Inclusion program, you’ll experience the tools, opportunities, and mentorship to help you continue your business success.

Our Advisor Diversity and Inclusion program is specifically designed to cultivate an inclusive selection of advisor communities, to support the growth of underrepresented advisors within the LPL family, and to meet the evolving needs of the investors you serve.
