“I desired a platform that could meet the needs of my high-net-worth clients and accelerate my growth aspirations,” said Smith. “After thorough research, I was impressed with Ameriprise’s intense focus on championing the advisor-client relationship. The firm has a large toolbox full of intuitive technology and a wide variety of products to support the way I want to work with my clients.”

Reflecting on the process of moving his business, Smith said, “I worked hard to build my practice, and so it was crucial that my next firm could provide an efficient transition. Ameriprise has extensive experience in facilitating advisor moves, and so my clients were able to make a smooth transition.”

In the case of Russell and his team, we combined our firm’s digital transition platform with a dedicated team of transition specialists to support and guide them along the way. This structure allowed Russell to concentrate on what he does best: serving his clients.”

Smith is deeply involved in his community, including roles with the local Chamber of Commerce, Kiwanis Club, Veteran’s Memorial, and Village Trustee in Burr Ridge, Illinois
