The wirehouse's newest hires come from Credit Suisse, which is looking to exit the U.S. wealth management market.

Advisors and firms will struggle with multiple and possibly conflicting standards should the Labor Department move forward with its fiduciary proposal, the industry group warned.

Employees at the wirehouse learned in a memo Thursday that Chris Wolfe was named CIO, among several other changes.

The firm's 2016 comp plans helps continue an emphasis on growing banking and lending businesses – a top strategic priority for the wirehouse, according to President Greg Fleming.

The wirehouse is increasing thresholds on grid ranges and tweaking some awards.

Four advisors from the Swiss firm passed on an offer to join Wells Fargo Advisors.

Advisors spend their whole careers planning for their clients’ retirement, but often wait too long to plot their own exit.

The former advisor swindled 22 clients out of their funds, telling them that they were investing in tax liens when he was really using the money to pay his bills, authorities claim.

The wirehouse's three newest recruits come from Credit Suisse.

William Blair, a Chicago-based financial services firm, said it hired a 24-year industry veteran.

Two advisors passed on an opportunity to join Wells Fargo, which recently inked a recruiting deal with Credit Suisse.

The wirehouse said it recruited the advisors from Credit Suisse.

Chris Mahoney, a longtime veteran of the wirehouse, says he loved his time there. But bureaucratic changes forced his nearly $3 billion practice to find a new home.

The wirehouse pulled over four teams from Credit Suisse.

Advisors can assist their aging clients having a hard time keeping a family-run business in the family.

In one of the largest moves, the wirehouse picked up a team from Credit Suisse that generated $6.4 million in annual revenue and oversaw $610 million in client assets.

The firm said it landed the mega team from Merrill Lynch, marking it the largest recruiting move in Raymond James' history.

Four advisors made the switch from Wells Fargo's independent broker-dealer to Raymond James Financial Services.

Among their chief concerns: being a burden on their families, according to a UBS survey.

The independent firm affiliated with Raymond James picks up two recruits who made the jump in separate moves from Oppenheimer.
