“Technology is allowing more and more entrepreneurial minded advisors to break free from the restrictions and conflicts inherent in the wirehouse model and run their own independent businesses,” said Mike Papedis, Co-Founder and Partner of FusionNetix. “Working with FusionNetix, RIAs can craft the perfect office environment with our procurement solutions, manage their daily IT needs and be assured that their cybersecurity complies with SEC standards.”
FusionNetix is led by RIA industry veterans, Mike and Kimberly Papedis, founders of Fusion Financial Partners, who have extensive experience helping sophisticated, fiduciary-minded financial advisors meet the challenges and growth opportunities of independence. The firm offers turnkey solutions for newly formed RIAs and breakaway advisors as well as acting as a sophisticated partner for existing RIAs seeking to improve their IT experience.
Headquartered in Carlsbad, CA, FusionNetix resulted from the acquisition by Fusion Financial Partners of Lifeline Computer Services in November 2020. Lifeline provided managed IT services and IT consulting to over 350 small- and mid-sized businesses and wealthy families and was fully owned by Maxwell Alles, who is a partner in the new venture.
“Financial advisors today can do so much more for their clients than what was possible just a few years ago due to advances in both hardware and software, but only if they have the right technology to begin with,” explained Maxwell Alles, Co-Founder and Partner of FusionNetix. “Our goal is to provide everything an advisory firm would need to build and maintain their tech stack, freeing advisors to concentrate on what they do best—giving good advice that helps their clients grow and preserve their financial assets.”
