Houston, Nov. 21, 2017 -- NEXT Financial Group, Inc. (“NEXT”), recently recognized by WealthManagement.com in the 2017 Industry Awards for our Transition Support and Acquisitions Team, is ramping up recruiting efforts for 2018.*

NEXT has built its recruiting department up this year to include two additional recruiters, who will work with the current team to grow the firm’s reach in the industry. In collaboration with NEXT’s Marketing and Business Development Departments, the new recruiters are projected to boost the company’s outreach efforts.
The enormous success of NEXT’s new award-nominated advisory platform*, NEXT Select, has also created a positive atmosphere of growth and progression at the firm. NEXT Select, launched in December of 2016, has grown to over $400,000,000 in AUM over just 11 months, significantly outpacing its projected goals. NEXT Select combined forces with NEXT’s legacy third party money-management firm, Visionary Asset Management (“Visionary”) to create NEXT Advisory Services, which offers Investment Advisor Representatives the freedom of choice in their fee-based strategy.
“As our industry continues to change and evolve, NEXT is ready to do the same. Our approach to supporting advisors has always centered on serving their needs first,” said Barry Knight, president of NEXT. “We have built a strong, advisory-based platform that is designed to offer sustainability and structure, all while keeping client relationships as the center focus. We also continue to provide the resources advisors need to serve clients in a transactional capacity when that strategy best meets their needs.”
