LPL Financial Welcomes Father-Daughter Team, Northern Lakes Financial Group

PDF Version

CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LPL Financial LLC announced today that Northern Lakes Financial Group has joined LPL Financial’s broker-dealer, hybrid registered investment advisor (RIA) and custodial platforms. The group reported to LPL that it served approximately $120 million in advisory, brokerage and retirement plan assets*. They join from Thrivent Investment Management.

Northern Lakes Financial Group is comprised of father-daughter team Robert Viau and Liz Mengo, who have approximately 35 years of combined experience as financial consultants. They are joined by client support specialist Kamryn Nardini. Based in Burlington, Wis., the group aims to provide personalized financial guidance to clients in an effort to help them achieve better clarity and confidence around their financial journeys. Specializing in both risk and client portfolio management, the team offers access to a variety of products and services – including retirement planning, life insurance, mutual funds and charitable giving solutions – to help their clients work toward their goals.

“Over the years, I’ve made a lot of commitments to my clients, and I’m dedicated to upholding those promises,” Viau said. “We’re proud of the trust our clients place in us, and we always want to ensure that we’re providing them with the tools that can help them not only reach, but also make the most out of their goals.”

In considering how to maintain business continuity and the ability to control their succession plan, the advisors decided they needed a more flexible business model and turned to LPL for their next chapter. “As we began looking for a partner to support our business needs, we were drawn to LPL Financial’s enhanced technology, strategic consultative support and dedicated service experience,” Viau said. “From the beginning, we were impressed by their receptive team and advisor-first approach, and we’re excited to partner with them for many years to come.”

“It’s with great pride that we welcome Robert, Liz and Kamryn to the LPL community,” said Scott Posner, LPL executive vice president, Business Development. “We are honored that the Northern Lakes Financial Group chose LPL Financial as their strategic partner, and we look forward to supporting their business aspirations. We’re confident that LPL’s innovative tools and integrated wealth management platforms will help them deliver a differentiated experience to their clients. We look forward to a long-lasting partnership with Northern Lakes Financial Group.”
