Pathstone
Barron’s Top RIA #10 national MFO platform—scale is real, PE roll-up culture risk is the relationship-longevity discount.
Why it is here

Financial Planning (Oct 2024) covers the Hall Capital Partners acquisition as the largest deal, pushing Pathstone toward ~$160B AUA after Veritable ($294M). InvestmentNews covers the national UHNW MFO consolidation narrative. Structural watchpoint: Kelso and Lovell Minnick PE ownership plus aggressive M&A—continuity diligence for discreet UHNW.
