Insights

The addition of Gary Presslaff to Ameriprise's Monumental Financial Planning team represents a modest but strategic acquisition of assets under management (AUM). The $100 million in client assets being transferred represents approximately 28.5% growth for the team's existing $350 million AUM base.

While this individual advisor transition is relatively small compared to Ameriprise's total operations, it reflects the company's successful recruitment strategy, having attracted over 400 advisors in 2023 alone. This steady pipeline of experienced advisors helps Ameriprise maintain competitive growth in the wealth management sector, particularly important as established advisors often bring stable, long-term client relationships and recurring revenue streams.

The transition also highlights Ameriprise's ability to compete effectively against rivals like LPL Financial in the independent advisor space, where technology infrastructure and support services are key differentiators in attracting talent.
