This Week in Wealth Management M&A
The mergers, acquisitions and advisor moves you may have missed the week of April 12 to 16, 2021.
According to a recent Fidelity report, there were just over $90 billion in RIA deals across 46 transactions, and $65 billion of money in motion across five IBD transactions in the first quarter of the year. Will the trend continue?
While last week was a lull, April’s second full week saw Wealth Advisor Growth Network, a practice management provider for breakaways, invest in its second firm; a $1.7 billion lift out named Naviter Wealth from regional broker/dealer Stephens.
Recently launched Journey Strategic Wealth tucked in its first advisor team, recruited from Northwestern Mutual and led by Kristin Bartlow who brings $180 million in client assets.
