LWA adds $2 billion in assets, expands Wealthspire’s Northeast, West Coast, and Midwest market share
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#RIA–Wealthspire Advisors, in partnership with parent company NFP, announced the integration of Lenox Wealth Advisors (LWA) into Wealthspire’s national independent investment advisory platform. LWA is also a subsidiary of NFP.
“By combining firms under the NFP umbrella, LWA and Wealthspire create significant advantages that benefit both our clients and our people,” said Wealthspire CEO Mike LaMena. “Size and scale are important. Coming together allows us to invest in the technology and talent we need and expand the capabilities and services we deliver.”
This integration comes on the heels of Wealthspire’s recent agreements to acquire Private Ocean Wealth Management, a $2.7 billion RIA based in San Rafael, California and Private Capital Group, a $1 billion RIA based in West Hartford, Connecticut. After these transactions are complete, Wealthspire expects to be overseeing assets of approximately $20 billion and have 20 offices across the country.
Founded in 2011, LWA has been part of NFP since its inception. LWA is known for developing and executing sophisticated financial plans and building custom investment portfolios for individuals, families, trusts, and nonprofit organizations.
Said Richard Van Benschoten, CEO of Lenox Wealth Advisors, “It is important for our clients to know that the goal is providing more choices, offering a deeper investment team, and continuing to improve processes and technology. We remain part of the same NFP family, but now as a larger team with more offices across the country and a combined $16.45 billion of assets under management.”
