By GlobalData“NorthView Asset Management has been a respected business for more than 20 years and was an obvious choice to be our first acquisition. They are a successful firm that is in growth mode and they fit the profile of adviser we look to attract here at Sanctuary.
“We are delivering on our business plan of going to market with a barbell approach to working with advisers: launching breakaways and being the ultimate destination for existing RIAs. How we execute in M&A will be different than other participants in this space.”
