Peter Wyrough has joined Concert Wealth Management as an advisor, reportedly launching the firm’s first office in the Washington, DC, area.

According to Reuters, Wyrough - who joined Concert last week from brokersXpress - also plans to expand Concert’s advisor presence in the region.

In previous roles, Wyrough has served as a financial advisor with Legg Mason, as well as an independent advisor with Raymond James Financial. In 2004, he founded ValueWealth Services, a wealth management firm where he currently serves as chief executive.

In other recent developments, in July the San Jose, CA-headquartered firm selected New York-based CAIS’s platform to strengthen its offering of alternative investment funds and products.

Concert Wealth Management is part of the Concert Global group, a holding company which includes the wealth management unit.
