Three advisors in Newport Beach, California, who had overseen about $1 billion in client assets at First Republic Bank are affiliating with RBC Wealth Management, in the latest attrition in First Republic's ranks.
Todd Halbrook, Adam MacDonald and Vince Lovoy will operate as the Todd Halbrook and Adam MacDonald Wealth Management Group. They are joined in the move by staffers Christie Gregg and Parker Howard.
All three advisors had been affiliated with First Republic since 2018. Halbrook has 27 years of experience, according to his BrokerCheck report, and had done stints at Wells Fargo and Citigroup before joining First Republic. MacDonald, with 16 years of experience, had also worked at Wells Fargo before joining First Republic. Lovoy, with 39 years of experience, has worked at Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Lehman Brothers, Kidder Peabody and Crowell Weedon.
