Global View Capital Advisors has access to a vast universe of insurance and annuity products from dozens of insurance companies. A complete team of external consultants provides the case designs and back office professional services needed to offer clients the best options for meeting their insurance protection needs.

Industry leaders in business transitions and valuations have determined that 70% of financial advisors truly own no more than their job. The Global View business model is designed to provide advisors the support and infrastructure needed for success without interfering with their ability to harvest the value of their life’s work. This all starts with having control of the clients’ confidential financial information, which as a Global View advisor you are contractually, granted ownership.

The foundation of any successful business is a sound business plan designed around the strengths of the individual. Unfortunately, financial services firms typically force individuals to adapt to the needs of the company, putting its needs ahead of both the advisor and clients. Upon affiliating with Global View, advisors are guided in developing a business plan based upon their strengths. With a thoughtful plan complete, the advisor can then access the appropriate product solutions and business development programs needed for creating a successful business.

The Global View graphics design group produces high quality brochures and presentations to create a professional image to your clients and prospects. In addition, Global View advisors have access to both a personalized website and LinkedIn profile that tells the unique story of Global View and the advisor. Our digital marketing team optimizes our advisors’ online presence to ensure it appears in searches for financial advice in their local area.

Our marketing tools, profiling forms, comprehensive financial planning software, hypothetical portfolio analytical system, proposal generation system, Laser App document filling software and other technologies make the process of bringing on new clients easy, repeatable, and efficient.

Our technology platforms are completely integrated. Our proposal system generates a professional presentation which includes portfolio performance and risk analysis relative to benchmarks. In addition, all forms necessary for the custodian chosen will be generated and populated with the client data. Also, our client billing, institutional trading and performance reporting systems are completely integrated for timely and accurate data in servicing your clients. Our Advisor Service Team provides account opening as well as ongoing support with transactions, manager changes, transfers and many other service requests.

At Global View we believe in the wisdom of teams both as a way to grow your business today and drive to higher business valuations in the future. We are experts in building teams with complementary skillsets and incentivizing them to support each other’s growth.

Our Advisory Services Platform is available to both our affiliated advisors and RIAs who act as a solicitor to the Global View platform.
