Five Advisory Practices Strengthen Hightower Signature Wealth
We’re excited to announce the addition of five advisory practices to Hightower Signature Wealth at the start of this new year—Fairport Wealth, Hightower Wealth Advisors | St. Louis, HT|TC Wealth Partners, RDM Financial Group, and The Rikoon Group. Together, these practices bring clients broader capabilities, deeper resources and access to a more integrated suite of planning and investment solutions. Signature Wealth now represents more than $20.8 billion* in assets under management.
With this expansion, we now proudly operate across 19 locations nationwide, with more than 100 advisors, offering clients a unified, elevated wealth management experience.
“As advisors, we’re focused on being able to deliver excellence for our clients,” said Omar Qureshi, Managing Director at Signature Wealth. “The platform continues to give access to institutional-quality tools, strong operational support, and a collaborative network that allows us to focus on what matters most—helping clients achieve their goals.”
Launched this past October, Signature Wealth provides growth-minded RIAs with the advantages of a large-scale, nationally recognized brand without sacrificing the personalized guidance of a trusted advisor.
Signature Wealth complements Hightower’s existing model by continuing to offer an integrated platform that helps maximize efficiency, streamlines operations, and leverages the breadth of Hightower’s centralized services and resources.
“Signature Wealth was created to open a new channel of growth for Hightower, while simultaneously elevating the client experience,” said Larry Restieri, CEO of Hightower Advisors. “By bringing some of the best thinkers in our advisor community together under one brand, we’re creating a unified expression of Hightower’s capabilities.”
“The real power comes from joining together with other practices that share our values and commitment to client-first service,” said Mike Drennen, Managing Director at Signature Wealth. “We’re combining our shared experience, profound skills, and collective vision to build an extraordinary client experience.”
Matthias Kuhlmey, Hightower’s Chief Development Officer, will lead the continued expansion and integration of Signature Wealth, ensuring advisors and clients benefit from Hightower’s full suite of resources and services.
We extend a warm welcome to our new Signature Wealth clients and team members and look forward to the addition of practices from within the Hightower network and external acquisitions in the coming months.
