Financial services firm Facet Wealth has acquired online financial advice provider Grove’s financial planning business for an undisclosed amount.
The deal includes Grove’s planning team and their clients.
Facet Wealth focuses on offering financial services to households and registered investment advisors (RIAs) who want to refer or transition investors to meet their business goals.
Grove delivers financial advice via a team of CFP Professionals. As part of the acquisition, Facet Wealth will gain 500 household clients and also the CFP Professionals.
Facet Wealth co-founder and CEO Anders Jones said: “We started Facet because we saw a vast amount of American households struggling to access financial planning.
“Grove’s clients can expect transparent, affordable service tailored to their unique financial life needs. We know what kind of possibilities we can create for these households with the right people and the right tools.”
