In addition to promotions, AdvisorAssist has recently expanded by adding four new consultants to its team, including: Christopher Mortara, Vice Preident, and Charlotte Malone, Compliance Consultant, both former Chief Compliance Officers of SEC-registered investment advisory firms; and Ann Keitner, Assistant Vice President and Kayla Berg, Senior Compliance Consultant, both of whom have previous experience as regulatory compliance consultants.

Many of our consultants have lived the life of a Chief Compliance Officer and bring real-world experience to our client engagements. We can relate to the anxiety of the unknown that many of our clients may feel. Therefore, we don't simply read the Advisers Act to our clients or chase them around with a checklist. We are here to be a collaborative partner to critically analyze the business practices and operations to implement practical solutions that make sense for the client," said Brian Young, Partner. "AdvisorAssist continues to enhance its team with individuals who can bring different experiences and perspectives to bear in helping AdvisorAssist's clients.
