What does a real contingency plan actually look like, and why are so many advisors still unprotected when something goes wrong?

In this inaugural episode of The SRG Exchange, SRG’s consulting team sits down for a candid, unscripted conversation about one of the most overlooked areas in an advisor’s business: contingency planning. Pulling from real client experiences, the team breaks down what “good” looks like, what’s missing in most firms, and how to create a plan that truly protects clients, revenue, and family in the event of death, disability, or unexpected disruption.

They explore common misconceptions (“My BD form covers me, right?”), share firsthand stories of plans that worked, and plans that didn’t, and outline the essential steps every advisor should be taking long before a crisis ever occurs.

Whether you're reviewing your current plan or starting from scratch, this episode offers clear, practical insight into building continuity where it matters most.
