Dynasty Financial Partners announced today the launch of Dynasty Investment Bank. Going forward, the firm will leverage its M&A and capital strategies capabilities to offer buy-side and sell-side advice for independent wealth management firms inside and outside the Dynasty Network as well as for other types of firms that are in need of independent and objective strategic advice in the wealth and asset management industry.
Services offered by Dynasty Investment Bank will include the following:
- Expertise in mergers, acquisitions, sales and divestitures
- Advice on strategic opportunities including recapitalizations, strategic valuations and succession planning
- Comprehensive RIA search and placement services
- M&A transition and integration
“At Dynasty, we are facing substantial demand for M&A and investment banking services from advisors in our Network and outside our Network. Whether a CEO desires to acquire an RIA or tuck-in a group of advisors, want to explore selling their business, or are seeking a valuation to understand the value of their equity, RIA management teams seek high quality and objective advice. With our deep expertise and years of experience working with hundreds of leading advisors, we are well-positioned to offer RIAs a wide range of investment banking capabilities in this ever-complicated market” said Shirl Penney, CEO of Dynasty Financial Partners.
According to Harris Baltch, Head of Dynasty Investment Bank, “The independent wealth management industry has accelerated its pace of consolidation and maturation over the last decade. The headwinds of aging advisors, the valuation gap of succession and a higher interest rate combined with the influx of different capital providers and a multitude of business models will create a long runway for consolidation in the years to come. We believe this will create significant opportunity to provide independent, objective advice to CEOs, management teams and investors to execute M&A from start to finish.”
The Dynasty Investment Bank employs a team of seasoned investment bankers, former private equity professionals and other former Wall Street executives that have deep transaction experience advising founders, CEOs and other C-suite professionals on M&A, capital structure optimization and succession. The firm cumulatively has professional experience of more than 100 years and has advised on over $25 billion in transaction value across dozens of advisory mandates.
Over the last twelve months, Dynasty has advised on over 14 transactions including the recent announcement by DayMark Wealth Partner’s tuck-in of a $450 million team and Americana Partners’ tuck in of a $700 million team from major wirehouses in the United States.
As part of this announcement, Dynasty will be hosting a live webinar titled “Navigating RIA M&A In This Evolving Market” on Wednesday, May 3rd at 3:00PM EDT that will feature two prominent CEOs in the Dynasty Network that represent over $19 billion in cumulative AUM, including Procyon Partners and Summit Trail. Each partner firm will discuss their differentiated approach to M&A, how they plan to navigate M&A in the current market backdrop and their broader relationship with Dynasty.
