- Abstract
This article discusses ways to accelerate growth in financial planning. Perhaps prompted by forecasts that clients in the future will favor larger firms capable of meeting all their financial needs, many planners nowadays are looking for ways to grow faster. Some are buying a practice. The selling trend may have something to do with the retirement of baby boom generation.
