The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. The two firms operate as separate entities but have similar names owing to their former affiliation with the larger CapTrust organisation.

CAPTRUST CEO and co-founder J.

This merger reflects the perfect alignment of values and our shared commitment to clients and colleagues.”
