A team of three advisers — Steven Bailin, Jodie Cohen and Jeffrey Prince — managing $700 million at Morgan Stanley in Los Angeles have formed PBC Private Wealth and gone independent, affiliating with LPL Financial.
The new firm is using the services of LPL’s strategic wealth services team, which supports the needs of breakaway advisers.
Bailin, who started his career in 1987 at Bateman Eichler, had been with Morgan Stanley and predecessor firms for 30 years. Cohen worked at those two firms over the same time period. Prince, also an industry veteran, was with Morgan Stanley for 23 years.
