AI tools are showing up in advisor practices everywhere. The compliance conversation hasn't caught up.

That does not mean advisors get to wait.

Three things worth having in place right now, regardless of where formal SEC guidance lands:

A human reviewing AI-generated content before it reaches clients. The advisor (or a qualified reviewer) needs to own the final version.

A simple, written list of which AI tools your firm uses and what they access. You do not need a 40-page policy. You need a clear record.

Client disclosure when AI tools record or transcribe your meetings. If a tool is capturing the conversation, clients should know that before it starts.

The advisors building these habits now are in a better position when formal guidance arrives. And it will arrive.

Drop your questions below or send us a message. Building compliant AI workflows into your practice is something ARC-affiliated advisors work through with our compliance team regularly.

The ARC family just got a little bigger. Welcome, Jeff Carroll of Carroll Wealth Management!

Jeff has 34 years in financial services and a clear philosophy: each client is different and deserves a more personalized approach. He started his career at Merrill Lynch in 1992 and built his firm around that same principle.

Outside the office, Jeff is an avid pickleball player who loves spending time with his wife Lyn, their two kids, and two grandsons. Sounds like the good life to us.

Jeff, we're glad to have you. Welcome to the community!

When evaluating a move, most advisors get distracted by the transition package.

That big upfront check feels like hitting the lottery. But if you're planning to grow your practice over the next 10-15 years, there's a break-even point where that check stops making sense.

John Andrews walks through the due diligence questions advisors should be asking about growth potential, cost structures, and long-term value.

The headline payout gets attention. But it's rarely the full story.

Most advisors focus on the big number without understanding what comes with it, or more importantly, what doesn't.

Hidden costs like platform fees, franchise fees, and technology expenses can turn a 95% payout into something much lower.

John Andrews explains why your grid isn't really your grid until you account for what's being taken out on top.

A great compliance team should not feel like a hurdle. 🚧

It should feel like a partner.

Solid compliance programs are built on:
✔️ Accessibility
✔️ Collaboration
✔️ Confidence

Because advisors need more than rules, they need support that helps keep business moving forward.

When compliance teams work WITH advisors instead of against them, growth becomes a lot easier to navigate.

That is the kind of partnership ARC believes in.

When an advisor asks about payout, there's usually something deeper going on.

It's not really about the percentage.

It's about transparency, value, or feeling capped at their current firm.

The "show me the money" conversation is often a proxy for bigger frustrations with their business model.

John Andrews, ARC's Director of Growth, breaks down what's really behind the payout question and what advisors should be focusing on instead.

If regulators showed up tomorrow… would your firm be ready?

In 2026, the spotlight is on:
✔️ Marketing compliance
✔️ Books & records
✔️ Cybersecurity

The challenge is no longer just “being compliant.”

It is proving it quickly.

Documentation, accessibility, and proactive systems matter more than ever—and the firms that stay ahead are the ones treating compliance like a business strategy, not an afterthought.

Compliance should not feel like a roadblock.

The best firms do not just say “no.”
They ask:

“How can we make this work while protecting the advisor and the client?”

That difference matters.

A strong compliance partnership can help advisors grow with more confidence, less friction, and better support along the way.

If you are exploring a new RIA home, ask about the compliance culture.

Is it a “no” culture…
or a “how” culture?
