Independent advisors need to lead the recruiting and training of a new generation of wealth managers, according Jeff Motske, president and CEO of Trilogy Financial, $3 billion hybrid RIA based in Huntington Beach, Ca.

Older clients want someone who can see their family through the estate transition process. A younger planner gives clients confidence that someone will be there to help them through their entire life and afterward.”

Trilogy Capital, the wealth management firm headquartered in Irvine, California, announced the acquisition of Westminster, Colorado-based Mountain Capital. Mountain Capital had over $1 billion in total client assets. The acquisition represents Trilogy’s largest deal of the year and its second Colorado location.

“Mountain Capital is a perfect fit for Trilogy and demonstrates our commitment to intelligent inorganic growth,” said Jeff Motske, Co-Founder, President and CEO of Trilogy. “Mountain Capital shares our commitment to long-term client relationships, fiduciary advice, and thoughtful financial planning, so the cultural fit is exceptional. We are very excited to be able to attract high-caliber people to Trilogy.”

Mountain Capital was founded in 2011 by U.S. Marine Corps veteran and former airline pilot Brandt Burns, its CEO. The firm serves individuals, families and small businesses, with a focus on aviation professionals. Its advisors include current and former pilots, airline leaders and other industry experts.

Written by: Andrew Lisa | Roughly 1 in 2 Americans retire between the ages of 61 and 65, and nearly 1 in 5 retire before that.
