Wirehouse advisors

The recruits come from Merrill Lynch, Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley.

Rockefeller Capital Management’s latest recruiting spate has netted it three wirehouse teams in Texas, Cincinnati and Los Angeles — one of which caters to Native American tribes.

“When I left, I told Morgan Stanley [Ron] was the best person I've ever worked for in my career,” says advisor Jason Fertitta, who is hiring his old boss.

The group includes an advisor who oversaw $843 million.

The new additions represent Rockefeller’s first foray into Colorado.

The wirehouse picked up a 43-year veteran from its rival.

The dispute highlights the complicated nature of non-solicitation carve-outs when advisors switch firms.

Arrogance, naiveté and that chief suspect, procrastination, can all undermine best laid advancement plans, writes recruiter Mark Elzweig.

The bank is winding down the roughly $40 billion international segment of its wealth management business.

The team caters to wealthy clients and athletes, and specializes in private placement life insurance.

The new hires include industry veterans and they join a growing branch in Dallas.

“As of today, Wells Fargo Advisors is not allowing solicitation of those two securities,” a spokesperson for the bank said Wednesday.

The new recruits build on the 43 advisors Janney added last year.

One of the largest wealth managers aims to attract more teams out of the crop of nearly 7,000 advisors leaving employee-channel firms each year.

Collectively, the brokers generated $167 million in annual production and oversaw $37 billion in combined client assets.

These elite producers in some cases operate far from Wall Street, even as they work for well-known wealth managers such as UBS, Merrill Lynch and Ameriprise.

The ex-Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch advisors join the wealth manager, which has been aggressively recruiting in recent months.

The firm’s aggressive hiring streak continues with the onboarding of several wirehouse advisors.

The group leader, advisor Lars Olson, had been with the wirehouse since 1994.

Firms will up their tech investments and continue rewards and punishments designed to shape advisor behavior, says recruiter Mark Elzweig.
