They were two of 56 financial planning students from 28 colleges and universities who attended TD Ameritrade Institutional&#8217;s<sup>1<\/sup> annual conference for independent registered investment advisors. The National LINC Conference is designed to be a learning and networking experience allowing students to build off skills they learned in the classroom while connecting with more than 3,000 financial advisors and other industry professionals from across the nation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>At this year\u2019s conference, students\u00a0attended feature sessions by Ian Bremmer, president, Eurasia Group; Viola Davis, award-winning actress of film, television and theater; Marc Goodman, New York Times best-selling author of\u00a0<em>Future Crimes;\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0April Rinne, advisor, Pathfinder, and\u00a0member of the World Economic Forum; and Jeremy Siegel, the\u00a0\u201cWizard of Wharton\u201d Wharton School finance professor. \u00a0They also heard about the convergence of financial services and technology from a keynote panel on\u00a0innovation\u00a0that included Adena Friedman, president of CEO, Nasdaq; Tim Hockey, president and CEO, TD Ameritrade; Ric Edelman, executive chairman, Edelman Financial Services; and Lex Sokolin, director of\u00a0fintech strategy, Autonomous.<\/p>\n<p>The students also participated in smaller breakout sessions and panel discussions on investing and evolving as a financial advisor, and attended networking events with advisors and leaders from TD Ameritrade Institutional.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie Hanson \u201919, communications intern with the Financial Planning Program, sat down with Matthew and Reagan to talk about their experience at the conference. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie: Overall what did you think about the conference?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/i><strong>Matthew<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>:<\/strong> One word: phenomenal.<br \/>\n<\/span><strong>Reagan: <\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I learned more in this one week than I ever could have in the classroom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie: What was your expectation entering the conference?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/i><b>Matthew<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: When I went in, I was expecting to be the least informed person there. When we got there I found that a lot of students were in the same boat as me. I am a lot more informed about the profession as a whole after attending the conference.<br \/>\n<\/span><b>Reagan:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I was really nervous about this conference because networking isn\u2019t something I am super confident with, but I ended up making connections with people that will follow me throughout my professional career. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie: What was your favorite part of Linc<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">?<br \/>\n<\/span><b>Matthew<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: My favorite by far were the keynote speakers. They were so knowledgeable in the field of financial planning and gave me an entirely new perspective on the industry.<br \/>\n<\/span><b>Reagan: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My favorite part of the conference was keynote speaker Jeremy Siegel and his talk about market analysis and predictions. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie: Did this conference change your outlook on the profession?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/i><b>Matthew<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Going into the conference I did not expect everyone to be so friendly. The finance industry gets a bad reputation for being extremely exclusive and closed off. The opposite has proven to be true. I found the people at the conference to be extremely willing to help each other out and share their knowledge and experiences with newcomers.<br \/>\n<\/span><b>Reagan:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Before going to the conference I was set on working for a big firm but after talking to a number of planners who owned their own businesses or worked in small partnerships, I want to be able to connect with my clients on a personal level like they do. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie: What surprised you the most about the event?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/i><b>Matthew<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: I was not expecting to be able to start such a cohesive professional network this far in advance.<br \/>\n<\/span><b>Reagan: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am usually not interested in politics but I really enjoyed getting to learn about how the political environment can affect the financial planning industry. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Callie: If a student is on the fence about participating in this event, what advice would you give him\/her?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/i><b>Matthew: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was a once in a lifetime opportunity and truly one of the best opportunities I have had in my entire college career. It really reinforced that I wanted to be in this industry and connections made there I know will last a lifetime.<br \/>\n<\/span><b>Reagan: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I would encourage students to go even if they are nervous about missing school for it because I learned more there than I ever could have in the classroom. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About TD Ameritrade Institutional<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=http-3A__cts.businesswire.com_ct_CT-3Fid-3Dsmartlink-26url-3Dhttp-253A-252F-252Fwww.tdainstitutional.com-252F-26esheet-3D51503996-26newsitemid-3D20170202005287-26lan-3Den-2DUS-26anchor-3DTD-2BAmeritrade-2BInstitutional-26index-3D2-26md5-3Dcf9f07ad0b73ee313702d82884c00505&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=nulvIAQnC0yOOjC0e0NVa8TOcyq9jNhjZ156R-JJU10&amp;r=atMysbbqoiFeZJDBE3yzJIcrwaNU5_SS4pT4aqtsXPQ&amp;m=GMWE4atiwU-GsyQrHpHxD6EUl9HuIhsDGOm2-tE2YXE&amp;s=aClZRPCYBu3XFfTrATtJWZFtpMn1sNHClOZCVVsz25g&amp;e=\">TD Ameritrade Institutional<\/a>\u00a0is a leading provider of comprehensive brokerage and custody services to more than 6,000 fee-based, independent registered investment advisors and their clients.
