A Platform Built Around You—Not the Other Way Around

At Alden, we believe the future of wealth management belongs to those who put people over product and advice over algorithms. We exist to support that future, where independent advisors thrive, clients feel empowered, and the industry is elevated by purpose-driven leadership. We know that the most enduring value in this business doesn’t come from a tech stack or a brand name—it comes from the people who sit across from clients every day.

That’s why we’ve built Alden around the advisor, not above them. The Alden platform is designed for serious financial professionals looking to scale, serve, and succeed—with the operational depth, multi-custodian flexibility, and strategic support to grow a business you’re proud of, and a legacy that lasts. Whether you’re building a boutique practice or leading a multi-advisor enterprise, we give you the tools to operate with excellence and the freedom to do it your way.

Working as an independent advisor with Alden Investment Group has been great not just for my clients, but also for my family, positively impacting my clients’ satisfaction and my work-life balance. The firm’s dedication and focus on its advisors create a very harmonious work environment that does not exist in a big company. Having been in the advisory business for 35 years, I wish I had transitioned to Alden sooner.

When I joined Alden, I was searching for more than just a platform — I was looking for a true partnership.

Their concierge-level operational support gives me the confidence to focus fully on my clients, knowing the details are handled with care and precision. The team is accessible, responsive, and committed. The leadership doesn’t just talk about innovation — they live it, always working to introduce thoughtful technologies that enhance both client experience and advisor efficiency. What sets Alden apart is their deep understanding that growth isn’t just about numbers; it’s about relationships, trust, and meaningful service. They support organic growth in a way that mirrors my own philosophy — intentional, human, and values-driven. If you’re looking for a firm that aligns with the heart of why we do this work, Alden is a place you’ll be proud to call home.

I joined Alden in August 2024 following a comprehensive evaluation of several broker-dealers. From my first meeting with Aaron, it was evident that Alden aligned with both my professional goals and values.

I had a clear vision for building my practice: providing clients with timely, research-driven guidance, delivered with integrity, a high-touch experience, and a strong sense of personal connection. Alden not only supported this vision but also provided the operational infrastructure necessary to help me grow my business in a scalable and meaningful way.

The transition of my book was handled with care, collaboration, and clear communication. Transferring client assets is never simple and issues did come up, but Alden’s team worked closely with me to ensure a smooth on-boarding process. Their responsiveness and willingness to adapt were instrumental in making the transition successful.

What sets Alden apart is the strength and autonomy of its back office. On multiple occasions, while I was out of the office, my dedicated support professionals proactively contacted clients to gather required documentation, ensuring continued momentum without disruption. That level of initiative and partnership is something I had not experienced with previous firms.

Alden’s platform also offers the flexibility I need to tailor portfolios to the specific needs of each client. This ability to provide bespoke solutions—alongside the support of a forward-thinking operations team—allows me to deliver a service model that goes well beyond the standard offered at wire houses or other boutique firms of Broker Dealers.

Additionally, the Alden Cove CRM platform gives me secure, remote access to client and asset management data, allowing for seamless continuity of service. Just as important is the collaborative culture—access to experienced professionals with diverse perspectives continues to expand my own thinking and directly benefits my clients.

Joining Alden has allowed me to elevate both the client experience and my own professional growth. I’m proud to be part of a firm that values innovation, integrity, and partnership. I look forward to our continued partnership as we grow together.

I joined Alden to increase the available product offerings, ability to act as a Fiduciary when working with clients and this allowed me to stay aligned with the resources of a larger institution while remaining fully independent – a combination that provides me the freedom, autonomy, and resources to truly put the clients’ interests first.

Having a partnership with an institution that genuinely prioritizes my business needs and is extremely responsive to support and many other critical wealth management resource needs.  For me, it’s an excellent turnkey solution for all things wealth, affording me the time to deepen existing client relationships and cultivate new ones.

Overall, the entire Alden team was very welcoming, which included senior leadership, other independent financial advisors, and the rest of the Alden team. Most notably, right after joining Alden, my priority was securing the Basalt Capital. Management branding/logo, press announcements, web page launched, business cards, etc.  Marketing provided excellent guidance, expedited the process, and connected me with the appropriate partners. The second priority was to start onboarding clients – both operations and compliance teams sprang into action, and I was off and onboarding clients in no time.

Alden’s comprehensive suite for independent advisors and flexible custodian platforms enables me to focus on the most important thing: my clients, their investments, and creating their financial plans to ultimately improve their balance sheets.

Specifically, through Alden, access is provided to a robust and sophisticated investment technology platform, compliance monitoring, cybersecurity, strong operational and marketing support, as well as access to Alden’s investment team and proprietary public and private offerings. Additionally, clients have access to top-tier custodians for safekeeping of client assets, Wall Street research, and economic commentary.  All of the above, without access through Alden’s turnkey platform, would have required a significant upfront cash outlay and a monumental time commitment, which would have detracted from the client or prospect experience.

Concierge Service

Concierge Service

A Full Middle Office, Backed by People Who Know Your Name

  • Full-Service Middle and Back Office: Account opening, billing, maintenance, and reporting.
  • Dedicated Support Team: A known point of contact who learns your practice and preferences.

Comprehensive Wealth Strategy, Delivered with Scale

We aim to deliver this through a simplified, technology-driven platform for clients, while you remain at the center of the relationship. We work behind the scenes, collaboratively on your behalf.

We’re here to empower you, never to interfere.

  • Investments: Models, SMA/UMA architecture, and tax-aware strategies.

Advisor Efficiency

Advisor Efficiency

Do More. Delegate Intelligently. Stay Focused.

You don’t have to do everything. Our team allows you to offload execution, administration, and analysis—while retaining control where it counts.

  • Trading-as-a-Service: Run your own models. We execute and rebalance.
  • Investment Committee Access: Collaborate on strategy and stay aligned with market positioning.
  • Planning Support: Tap into illustrations, tax overlays, and Monte Carlo simulations.
  • Billing & Automation Tools: Automate revenue tracking and reporting with full transparency.

Our Investment Committee is critical in helping advisors evaluate third-party strategies and construct models that reflect each client’s goals. We conduct due diligence across performance, drawdown, historic risk/return, and qualitative factors like firm stability, management structure, and investment philosophy.

You can tap into our committee’s expertise as a resource, or lean into our platform analytics—the same tools our team uses to build portfolios internally. Our deep knowledge in fixed income, equities, and alternatives also allows us to help advisors create niche SMAs and custom portfolios tailored to real-world needs like tax efficiency, diversification of concentrated positions, and unwind scenarios.

When you free up time, you create more capacity to grow, without compromising quality.
