Your Journey, Our Support

At some point, a committed, discerning advisor sees the landscape shifting—what once felt secure now feels uncertain. Familiarity has its limits, and the future calls for a choice. The professionals who will thrive at Foster & Associates are ready to take ownership of their next chapter with confidence and purpose.

We provide experienced Portfolio Managers and growth-minded Mutual Fund Representatives with the support and flexibility to shape their own path in a firm built on integrity, expertise, and personal service.

This is beyond headcount—it’s about partnering with advisors who are ready to build something meaningful, with a team that respects your vision and the road you’ve traveled to get here.

The Foster Commitment

 

  • Payouts That Time Forgot – Keep more of what you earn with a payout structure that rewards your value from day one.
  • Independent, Not Alone – Maintain your freedom to advise—backed by CIRO and CIPF membership, and a 30-year custodian partnership with National Bank Independent Network (NBIN). The support you need, and the stability your clients deserve.
  • Client-Centric, Not Product-Pushed – We focus on relationships over quotas, so you can serve your clients on your terms. Done right, the rest will follow.
  • Seamless Transition Support – Your dedicated onboarding team ensures a smooth transition for you and your clients.
  • Mentorship & Growth-Focused Community – Independence thrives with the right support. From practice management to marketing, we give advisors the tools and connections to grow with confidence.
  • A Solid Compliance Reputation – You’ve built your business on trust, and so have we. With CIRO-aligned standards as guardrails—not roadblocks—compliance keeps you on track without slowing you down. We say “yes” when we can and “no” when we must.

Making the Move: Advisor Perspectives

“The team helped me navigate the account documentation process, ensuring everything was prepared and reviewed before moving forward with clients. The whole experience has reinforced my decision to bring my practice to Foster. I look forward to growing my business here.”

 

Francesco, Portfolio Manager

“After learning that Foster would support me in a few ways in becoming accredited and knowledgeable in investing at a full securities broker, I felt encouraged to make the leap. Not only did I feel I was doing the right thing for my clients, my confidence grew knowing I was part of a firm that could truly do more for investing. Foster’s support made what seemed like a daunting task, achievable.”

 

Celeste, Investment Advisor

“Clients today are more informed than ever. They expect more than just investment products; they want an advisor who is fully invested in their financial well-being. Making the leap to a full-service model wasn’t necessarily easy, but it changed the way I see this industry. Once you take that step, you understand why Foster was the right choice.”
