This growth allows us to extend our reach nationally, enhance our investment and service offerings, and strengthen our advisory and operational talent. We warmly welcome the teams and clients of Telemus, Strategic Wealth Partners (SWP), NorthCoast Asset Management, IFAM Capital, TMD Wealth Management, Relative Value Partners, LLC, and now, Fort Pitt Capital Group. Together, we are dedicated to putting the client first and upholding the Kovitz legacy of exceptional service. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey.
