Advisor Group said Tuesday morning that a team of RBC Capital Markets advisors with $250 million in client assets, led by Tom Delich, last month joined Financial Dimensions Group, which is affiliated with Royal Alliance Associates Inc., one of eight broker-dealers in the network.
Financial Dimensions Group, based in suburban Minneapolis, is one of the largest firms affiliated with Advisor Group, with more than 60 financial professionals managing over $4.2 billion in total client assets, according to the company.
Delich had worked at RBC for almost 23 years, according to his BrokerCheck report.
"We are excited to partner with Financial Dimensions Group and look forward to all the benefits of being part of Advisor Group," Delich said in a statement.
The team at New Brighton, Minnesota-based Delich Wealth Management includes advisor Ben Freeby and staffer Mary Farnham.
Advisor Group announced last month that it will merge its eight affiliated broker-dealers under a single, yet-to-be named brand in a process that will take two years.
