MARSHFIELD, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AdvisorAssist,
LLC announced today the promotion of Conor I. Anderson and Brian M.
Young to Partner and the addition of four new consultants to its team.
Both Conor and Brian joined AdvisorAssist in 2015 and have grown into
management roles through implementing institutional systems and
processes, along with developing a strong nucleus of compliance
consultants. Under their leadership, AdvisorAssist has significantly
grown its client engagements while building a team of sixteen
experienced compliance professionals.
“Conor and Brian have been instrumental in our growth and success,”
said Chris Winn, CEO of AdvisorAssist. “They both continually exceed the
expectations of our partner firms and deliver innovative compliance and
technology solutions to help our advisors build, grow, protect and
optimize their firms.”
Conor joined the AdvisorAssist team with over fifteen years of
investment compliance experience, including SEC, FINRA and global
functional compliance expertise. Conor has served as a Chief Compliance
Officer for an SEC-registered RIA and has held senior compliance officer
roles with global asset managers.
Brian joined the AdvisorAssist team with over ten years of experience in
the investment industry with a focus on sales and client relationship
management. Brian’s experience spans various positions within a global
broker-dealer and a hedge fund.
In addition to promotions, AdvisorAssist has recently expanded by adding
four new consultants to its team, including: Christopher Mortara, Vice
President, and Charlotte Malone, Compliance Consultant, both former
Chief Compliance Officers of SEC-registered investment advisory firms;
and Ann Keitner, Assistant Vice President and Kayla Berg, Senior
Compliance Consultant, both of whom have previous experience as
regulatory compliance consultants.
“We are excited about the depth of experience and knowledge that our
consultants bring to our team. Many of our consultants have lived the
life of a Chief Compliance Officer and bring real-world experience to
our client engagements. We can relate to the anxiety of the unknown that
many of our clients may feel. Therefore, we don’t simply read the
Advisers Act to our clients or chase them around with a checklist. We
are here to be a collaborative partner to critically analyze the
business practices and operations to implement practical solutions that
make sense for the client,” said Brian Young, Partner.
“AdvisorAssist continues to enhance its team with individuals who can
bring different experiences and perspectives to bear in helping
AdvisorAssist’s clients. Because compliance is multi-faceted,
AdvisorAssist’s ability to address challenges and opportunities from
various angles is a significant benefit to advisors,” said Troy Paredes,
Member, Advisory Board.
