Wightman boasts of vast experience in asset management and financial services, and will take over the task of business development at North American Management.

"Mark and Sage’s significant money management experience, established relationships and involvement in the St. Louis community are valuable assets to our firm and client base. We are excited to support Mark and Sage as they offer the independent, customizable approach to advisory services we feel will benefit individuals and families in St. Louis and beyond," opined Robert G. Scott, CEO of North American Management.

"North American is the right size for St. Louis and the Midwest region: large enough to bring best-in class advice across a multi-dimensional spectrum of asset classes, but small enough to provide portfolio customization and personalized client service," said Mark Reed.

Presently, with $1.4 billion worth of assets in its control, possessing clients in 30 states and a workforce of 30 people, the company operates an open-architecture model, managing assets not only internally but also utilising complimentary external managers.
