Two veteran financial advisors left Morgan Stanley to join Ameriprise Financial’s employee channel with $321 million in client and institutional assets.
The team includes Ron Phelps and Jacob Hamus, who spent 24 years and 11 years, respectively, at the wirehouse firm. They are based in Middleton, Wisconsin, near Madison, and are setting up a new Ameriprise office there.
“Transitioning in an all-virtual environment had its complexities, but we knew joining Ameriprise was the right move for our clients and our business,” according to Phelps.
As the team works with both wealth management and institutional clients, “it was important for us to have access to a wide range of investment capabilities and products – and the ability to serve the clients in the way that best suits their unique needs,” Phelps explained.
The duo was “impressed with the firm’s technology and digital capabilities, which are designed to help us collaborate smoothly with clients across multiple generations,” Hamus said in a statement.
The two advisors made the move with client service associates Wendy Campbell and Lyam Hunt and with the support of Ameriprise branch manager Paul Jackson.
