A company that is the largest independent broker-dealer in the U.S. and a major RIA account custodian is getting into the robo-advisor business.

LPL Financial announced on Wednesday that it will use BlackRock Solution’s FutureAdvisor to offer its advisors a digital advice solution.

The firm says the move will enable advisors and institutions to “grow and expand into new markets.”

“We are excited to collaborate with FutureAdvisor to accelerate the development of our robo-advice solution, which we believe will enable our advisors and institutions to serve a variety of clients with independent, objective financial advice in a convenient and scalable manner,” said Ryan Parker, LPL managing director of investment and planning solutions, in a released statement. “The new solution will complement advisors’ existing practices and expand the availability of their services to current or potential clients who may prefer a digital alternative to the traditional method of receiving investment advice.”

FutureAdvisor will be able to access LPL Research’s model investment portfolios, and LPL will make the robo-advisor accessible through its custodial platform and through a web portal.

LPL will incorporate FutureAdvisor’s account management, account aggregation, tax-efficient portfolio management, online account enrollment and investor portals into its offerings.

BlackRock bought FutureAdvisor in 2015 for $152 million. Since that time, the company has announced that banks BBVA Compass and RBC Wealth Management will use the platform to offer a digital advice solution to advisors and clients.
