The latest deal continues Captrust’s recent acquisition spree.

This August, the firm snapped up South Texas Money Management that added $3.7bn in assets to its books.

Earlier this year, Captrust added $2bn in assets with the acquisitions of McQueen, Ball & Associates, and Cornerstone Capital Advisors.

Currently, Captrust has a presence across 48 locations and adviser headcount of 234.

The firm manages over $340bn in assets, including wealth management assets of around $17bn. It tends to HNWIs, retirement plan fiduciaries, endowments, as well as foundations.

Commenting on the latest deal, Captrust CEO J. Fielding Miller said: “Mike and the rest of the Boston Advisors’ Private Advisory Group are top-notch talent who will fit right in and contribute immediately.”
