Amplifying Our Voices. Advancing Our Industry.

The IAA Advocacy Council, comprised of individuals at member firms, will help amplify the collective voice of investment advisers and advance the interests of their clients. The Council will also help shape programs and initiatives such as Adviser Advocacy Day, Contact Congress campaigns, and IAA government relations activity.

Membership also offers valuable opportunities to engage with other industry and policy leaders.  Members will also receive communications about IAA PAC and how to participate.
