SunTrust Banks has bolstered its presence in US Northeast by launching a new private wealth management office in Boston.
The new office will be staffed by Rick Tesh, who serves as a client adviser in SunTrust Private Wealth Management’s Greensboro office.
Tesh, who specialises in offering investment, credit, insurance and capital markets solutions to wealthy families, will now move to Boston.
He will be supported by client adviser Daniel Larsen, who has expertise in business transition, retirement income and goals-based financial planning.
SunTrust Private Wealth Management head Joe Thompson said: “Establishing an office in Boston is an important step in our Northeast expansion, and builds on our wealth management presence in New York City and Greenwich.
“New England has a high concentration of affluent individuals and families who will benefit from our goals-based financial planning process, investment expertise and banking solutions, allowing them to make confident financial decisions.”
