LPL Financial announced that financial advisor James P. Norris, MBA, APMA, of Argosy Financial, has joined its broker-dealer, RIA, and custodial platforms. He reported serving approximately $250 million in advisory, brokerage, and retirement plan assets and joined LPL from Centaurus Financial.
Based in Glendale, Arizona, Norris has over 20 years of experience in financial services, specializing in investment management, client portfolio construction, and retirement planning. He prides himself on developing personalized investment strategies for each client’s distinct needs rather than using a templated approach.
With support from team members Michael O’Brien, Romy Quick, and Sarah Norris, Argosy Financial is committed to providing clients with the highest level of service. It operates with three values at the forefront of its mind: honesty, integrity, and trust.
Norris was a longtime LPL advisor in the past who left to become a successor for two retiring advisors. And as the business continued to grow, Norris felt it was the ideal time to return to his roots and take advantage of LPL’s industry-leading capabilities.
