Most brokerages don’t reach out at the first sign of risk.
They wait until it becomes urgent.
You don’t have to.
Reach out when:
- Your Principal Broker has resigned, is on leave, or may be stepping away
- You’ve received — or anticipate — pressure from regulators
- You’re planning a transition but don’t yet have a licensed replacement
- An internal candidate isn’t ready to assume the role on their own
- You’re feeling uncertainty around compliance, accountability, or exposure
- You want to stabilize the role before it becomes a regulatory issue
If you’re even asking the question, it’s worth the conversation.
Early clarity creates better options.
