Curtis Reed, president of Arbor Point Advisors said: "Seeing the growth Fortress Wealth has achieved in such a short amount of time is impressive. We know today’s financial advisors want to build their practice centered around their own unique value proposition and stay focused on clients. Being able to work with companies like Fortress Wealth highlights the possibilities for advisors seeking independence and partnership help on the regulatory and structural aspects of the business."

Fortress Wealth Advisors conducts advisory business through Arbor Point Advisors, a joint venture of Securities America, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services and NorthStar Financial Services Group.

Kerins and Hendrickson together managed more than $120 million in client assets. A graduate of the University of California, Davis, the University of Texas, Austin and the College of Financial Planning, Kerins holds the Series 7, Series 63 and Series 65 licenses. Hendrickson, a graduate of the University of Nebraska, Lincoln holds the Series 7 and Series 66 licenses

They were previously with Manarin Investment Counsel, Ltd. of Omaha.
