NEW YORK, March 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. ("Oppenheimer") – a leading wealth manager, investment bank, and a subsidiary of Oppenheimer Holdings (NYSE: OPY) – today announced the expansion of its Miami-area presence with the opening of the new office in Coral Gables.

"I am delighted that Oppenheimer's Coral Gables office has opened its doors," said Ed Harrington, Executive Vice President of the Private Client Division. "The new facility reflects the firm's strong and growing commitment to South Florida, which over the last few years has emerged as one of the most important financial services hubs in the country. Moving forward, we are excited to build upon our long track record of supporting growth-oriented, entrepreneurial-minded financial advisors in the region and to serving a wide range of domestic and international clients." 

More than 30 financial advisors currently work out of the Coral Gables office, which replaces the firm's former Miami headquarters in Coconut Grove. Importantly, the state-of-the-art, multi-use facility provides the Private Client Division much-needed extra capacity to continue to grow its South Florida-based advisor base in the future. 

The office is centrally located, situated around other prime real estate, including various historic landmarks, luxury hotels and high-end retail shops. It also enjoys easy access to Miami International Airport.  

Oppenheimer's Miami team offers a wide array of sophisticated solutions for clients. This includes corporate and executive services, investment solutions and tactical allocations, financial planning and retirement planning, as well as trust services and estate planning. Its advisors possess a deep understanding of capital markets and strategic considerations for clients with interests in Latin America.

Since Oppenheimer first established a presence in South Florida almost 30 years ago, its local footprint has grown substantially. The Coral Gables office's success over that period has been fueled by its ability to attract, groom and retain high quality, client-focused advisors. Since February 2020, the team's asset under management growth has outpaced the performance of the S&P 500 by more than 50%.

"I was thrilled to be a part of the Coconut Grove community for so many years and I'm sad to leave it behind, but this new office in Coral Gables highlights the momentum Oppenheimer has created in South Florida," said Guillermo Vega, Branch Manager, "Looking ahead, I look forward not only to accelerating our growth in Miami but to continuing to find new and innovative ways to support advisors who serve high-net-worth and institutional clients in the area."
