Chicago-based Burnham Harbor Private Wealth includes managing partners James Corrigan, David Holtkamp, Sean Jucas and Kenneth Shay, as well as staffers Basel Alwawi and Cindy Hehr.

"As independent advisors, we can truly focus on what's important to our clients," Shay said in a statement. "Sanctuary will allow us to be more creative in how we acquire clients or books of business, as well as how we staff our office and plan for internal succession.”

Corrigan has 17 years of experience, according to his BrokerCheck report, and had been affiliated with Merrill Lynch since 2009. Holtcamp joined Merrill in 2006 and Jucas had been affiliated with Merrill since 2007.
