LPL Financial LLC, the nation’s largest independent broker-dealer, has added Hege Financial Group to its broker-dealer and corporate registered investment advisor platforms. The advisors serve approximately $275 million in brokerage and advisory assets and joined from Lincoln Financial Securities.

Based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the firm was founded in 1979 by longtime financial advisor Ed Hege.
