For introducing brokers weighing what comes next — affiliate, transition, or sell — backed by the compliance, technology, and research infrastructure Allendale has run since 1984.
RJO's move into StoneX means fewer carrying relationships and real operational change for small IBs.
Compliance, cybersecurity, recordkeeping, and modern client technology now demand scale most solo practices can't reach.
Most broker practices have no documented plan for the day the principal steps back. The book deserves better.
Whether you're years from retiring or ready for a clean exit, there's a path that fits — and we take the back office either way.
