Moneta

The principals of The Berry Group, which is based in Worcester, will join the firm as partners.

The Berry Group, a Worcester, Massachusetts-based registered investment adviser managing $625 million, has merged into Moneta, a St. Louis-based RIA managing almost $24 billion.

The expansion marks Moneta’s first foray into the Northeast, the firm said in a release.

Moneta expects to expand into other markets “where like-minded advisors who appreciate the concept of shared equity in a member-owned RIA express interest in joining,” Eric Kittner, the firm’s managing partner and chairman, said in the release.
