Advisors William Goettert and John Entenberg joined Morgan's office in Boca Raton, Fla., where they report to Complex Manager Bert White. While at Citi, the duo generated $5 million in annual production.
Goettert and Entenberg had been with Citi since 2010, according to FINRA BrokerCheck records. Prior to that they worked at Merrill Lynch.
Morgan also said that it had recruited advisor Louis Greif from Barclays last month. He joined the wirehouse in New York where he reports to Justin Ferdula, branch manager. While at Barclays, Greif generated $1.25 million in annual revenue.
Greif had been at Barclays since 2013, according to BrokerCheck. Previously, he worked at UBS.
