"I am confident that by joining forces with Bison Wealth, we will be able to provide our clients with even greater access to cutting-edge research, technology, and strategic insights to help them achieve their financial objectives," added Siegel.
They become the third team to join Bison since it brought in Tom Scaturro to boost growth late last year. The industry veteran was also previously with Key Private Bank having also held senior roles at BNY Mellon and Wells Fargo.
"We've spent the past couple of years getting Bison's infrastructure ready for expansion and expect to bring on several more teams rapidly. We're excited to see what this year brings for Bison Wealth," said Chuck Rice, CEO of Bison Wealth.
