A seven-member team managing $525 million in assets at Merrill Lynch in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, has moved to the employee unit of Raymond James.
Making the move are advisers Joseph R. Anderson, Matthew A. Lyman, Jeffrey L. Smith, Heather Bolster and Tyler Christian Anderl. Joining them are associates Heather Bloom and Christopher Dallenbach.
Anderson began his financial services career at Merrill Lynch in 1988. Lyman spent 15 years at Smith Barney/Morgan Stanley before joining Merrill Lynch nine years ago. Smith had been with Merrill Lynch for five years, after spending 17 years at Edward Jones.
Bolster spent seven years with Smith Barney as a sales assistant before working at Merrill Lynch as an advisor for the past nine years. Before his time at Merrill Lynch, Anderl was an associate at Ernst & Young in San Francisco and at Parametric Portfolio Associates in Seattle.
Also, Orion has added BlackRock, Fidelity, and Vanguard to its custom portfolios suite, and RedBlack has set up a new headquarters after crossing a trillion-dollar milestone.
Also, New York-based Legacy Edge Advisors names its first-ever CEO, while Novare Capital Management hires a Vanguard veteran with a multigenerational planning focus.
