The team includes first vice president Tristan Lambert, vice president Bita Asgair, senior registered client associates Lizbeth Sain and Melissa Montoya, and client associates Jenifer T. Quiles, Maria Ramos-Barcia, Yohan Garciga and Paul Alva..
The Ruccio Group’s ultra-high-net-worth clients include real estate investors, private equity partners and CEOs. The team’s services include wealth planning, asset preservation and custom lending, with the team currently handling $1.6 billion of liabilities for clients.
“At RBC Wealth Management, our team will be able to combine the personalized attention and feel of a smaller firm with the power and insights of a global financial institution, enabling us to create goals-based financial strategies tailored to our clients’ unique situations,” Ruccio said.
Ruccio has 15 years of experience, according to his BrokerCheck report, all at Merrill Lynch.
