LPL Financial LLC led the September 23, 2026 new-adviser registration review with 12 first-registration records, the most of any firm. The single-day review counted 121 records across 63 firms. Edward Jones and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC each contributed 9 records, and Morgan Stanley contributed 8. All other firms combined accounted for the remaining 83 records.
What the records show
The records are first-registration entries dated September 23, 2026, with each date derived from the individual's earliest employment-history entry that resolves to a known registered firm. They are not verified hiring or licensing dates, and the observation date should not be read as an employment date. Because this is a single-day count, it does not establish a frequency trend or a movement between firms.
LPL Financial LLC's 12 records
Two of the LPL records in the review belong to Aimsley L. Kadlec, listed with a Des Moines, Iowa branch, and Jack Van Kleeff, listed with a Pompton Plains, New Jersey branch.
Edward Jones and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC follow
Edward Jones's 9 records include John R Harrell, listed with a Leavenworth, Kansas branch, and Jonathan R Hilton, listed with a Rancho Cucamonga, California branch. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC's 9 records include Andrew Robustelli, listed with a Boston, Massachusetts branch, and Summer F. Wilson, listed with a New York, New York branch.
Morgan Stanley's 8 records
Morgan Stanley's 8 records include Ricky Deng, listed with a Pasadena, California branch, and Traci L Manford, listed with a Cincinnati, Ohio branch.
A note on locations
Each adviser location shown here is the first branch listed for that individual that is distinct from the firm's business address, or the first listed branch if none is distinct. It is not verified as the adviser's residence or sole workplace, and the branch source date of September 27, 2026 is separate from the September 23 registration observation date.
