Herndon, Va.  Northwest Financial Advisors (NWFA) today announced that LPL Financial, the nation’s largest independent broker-dealer,1 has awarded six of its financial advisors 2018 club membership.The awards are based on annual production of all registered LPL advisors as of year-end 2017.

Two of its most seasoned advisors, Jim Christy and Russ Cesari, have been selected for LPL’s Executive Council, the highest club level.

“I congratulate these highly capable advisors on achieving an elite distinction among their numerous LPL-affiliated peers. I’m confident that for each advisor, awards and accolades are not what drive them to perform. But rather, they are motivated by the prospect of creating and sustaining desirable outcomes for their clients on a personal level,” said Kevin Fisher, President & CEO of NWFA.

NWFA’s Sr. Vice President Karen Benedict said, “This recognition reflects the tremendous value these advisors continue to bring to their clients. I am grateful for their commitment to offering independent and strategic financial advice that has been rewarding to them as well as their clients.”

Achieving club membership with LPL entitles NWFA’s advisors to a range of benefits including educational opportunities and enhanced operational services, which in turn, help strengthen the capabilities that they bring to their clients.
