Laday, who has 32 years of experience, joins Bonevento and Costabile at Intellectual Capital Group, based in Wall Township, N.J.

Last year, Bonevento was named among Barron’s list of Top 1,200 Financial Advisors, and Costabile was named a Forbes Top Next-Generation Wealth Advisor in 2018.

“We welcome Michael, James, Craig and their entire team to LPL,” said Rich Steinmeier, LPL Financial managing director and divisional president, Business Development. “For advisors to have the capacity to reach their business’ full potential, they need a partner with scale, and one that truly understands their business and what they need to succeed today and in the future. Our advisors are our business, and we strive to set them up for success at every step—from personalized onboarding support, to helping them grow their practice as the advice landscape changes and their clients’ needs evolve. We will continue to invest in the capabilities and solutions that will help Michael, James, Craig—and all of our advisors—work toward the goals they set for themselves and their clients.”

The Forbes ranking of Top Next-Generation Wealth Advisors, developed by SHOOK Research, is based on an algorithm of qualitative and quantitative data, rating thousands of wealth advisors born in or after 1980. Advisors are interviewed by telephone and in person to evaluate service models, investing process, experience levels and integrity. Additional factors considered include compliance record, client retention, revenues produced for their firms and assets managed. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK receives a fee in exchange for rankings.
