M&A Outlook 2026: Dual Monetization, PE Pitfalls & What Advisors Need to Know
In this episode of Advisor Talk, Frank LaRosa sits down with Joe Greco, Director of Elite Advisor Successions, for a candid and in-depth look at what’s really happening across the M&A landscape as we move into 2026. With deal volume reaching record highs and consolidation reshaping the broker-dealer world, advisors are facing critical decisions about succession, valuation, and long-term strategy.
Frank and Joe break down why the current environment is creating urgency - yet also unprecedented opportunity - for advisors who prepare early and understand how buyers are evaluating practices. They discuss the rising interest in dual monetization, the risks advisors often overlook in partial PE sales, and the emotional hurdles that frequently derail deals at the finish line.
