New York-listed Raymond James has added the Gables Legacy group, who latterly managed $300 million in client assets at Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, to its practice in South Florida, according to On Wall Street. The team consists of advisors Vann Wilder, senior vice president of investments, and Van Martin, wealth management specialist and advisor, in addition to Maria Wilder, their associate. The firm had not responded to confirm the details before going to press. South Florida complex manager Frank Amigo said there are “tremendous opportunities” in South Florida. “We will expand within the city, within existing offices, and we will expand and open up new satellites when it’s appropriate,” Amigo reportedly told the publication in an interview. “We opened up a new Miami Beach satellite about a year ago that's almost full.” To view an article on the wealth market in Florida click here.
