RBC Wealth Management Appoints Managing Director In California

RBC Wealth Management has hired Rob Spawn as senior managing director of the firm’s San Francisco, CA, complex.

Spawn joins RBC Wealth Management from UBS, where he expanded the firm’s presence in Las Vegas; led the Nevada-Utah and Houston complexes, and, most recently, served as associate complex director for Arizona/New Mexico.

In his new role at RBC, Spawn will oversee around 70 financial advisors and 125 employees across San Francisco; San Jose; Fresno; Monterey; El Dorado Hills; Walnut Creek; Santa Rosa; and Oakland.

Earlier this month, RBC WM added The Resin Hammitt Group to its Manhattan Beach, CA, office.

The firm has more than $250 billion of assets under administration and nearly 2,000 financial advisors operating in 42 states.
