Bluespring Wealth president Stuart Silverman added: “Our goal is to build upon their existing financial planning approach, ensure sustainable business growth, and preserve the firm’s well-respected legacy for years to come.”

A subsidiary of Kestra Holdings, Bluespring Wealth Partners focuses on the acquisition and servicing of wealth management firms.

In August this year, the firm acquired Chicago-based Hedeker Wealth, which managed over $350m in assets.

It included the takeover of Hickory Asset Management, Believeland, and Vector Wealth Management.
