Brokerage: a transactional brokerage account with cash management features.
You enjoy a hands-on approach to building and maintaining your investments, but you want your TFA Financial Professional (FP) to provide guidance and then you determine when to make changes. You want an investment account that can be used to set aside money for a variety of needs and that allows you to add or withdraw funds based on your decisions. You also want to transfer assets into the account and use cash management features such as a debit card or bill pay when needed.

@ Please read the prospectus carefully before making any purchase.
Advisory: an ongoing, managed account for diversified needs with a clear goal in mind
You prefer to delegate portfolio construction and management to selected professional money managers or multiple professional managers. You want an account that is continually managed and for your investments to grow through an asset allocation strategy. You want diversification across various asset classes and an efficient, cost-effective way to stay invested and periodically review the strategist portfolio solution. You may choose to use a variety of investment vehicles – such as Fund Strategists, Separately Managed Accounts or mutual funds – to have an integrated portfolio strategy. You may start with a particular need for a portion of your investment needs but want the opportunity to add or transfer in assets that use a different portfolio manager in the future.
