Recruiting news has been a bit slow this spring for some firms, a fact that LPL Financial (LPLA) acknowledged when it released its quarterly earnings on Wednesday.
Bank of America-Merrill Lynch (BAC), though, says it recently added a team from rival Morgan Stanley (MS).
The two advisors, Gerald and Brian Saroken — a father and son team — are based in New York.
Combined, they have about $300 million in assets and $2.6 million in yearly production.
Gerald has been in the business for 15 years; his office is in White Plains. He joined Citibank/Smith Barney in 1999 and moved to Morgan Stanley in 2009, with the MSSB merger, according to FINRA records.
Brian, a CFP, became a Smith Barney advisor in New York City in 2002.
