In this episode of The Wealth Horizon Podcast, Rosemary Denney talks with Brad Mook, Managing Director of Investments and Finance at Rosemont, about what RIA and wealth management M&A look like beneath the headlines. Brad breaks down how today's conversations have moved past "establishing a beachhead" into questions of scale, deal structure, and long-term succession. He also explains why advisory firms still need to return to the core of the work: serving clients well.

Rosemary and Brad walk through situations where M&A can strengthen a firm, the moments when staying independent is the right answer and the cultural factors that shape whether a merger actually works. They cover the pressures that come with competing for ultra-high-net-worth clients, the warning signs that can stall a deal and the reason organic growth and a consistent marketing presence remain essential for firm health.

In this episode, they discuss:

  • What is fueling ongoing RIA and wealth management M&A activity
  • How headline momentum and peer pressure can push firms into deals that don't support their strategy
  • When scale can improve client outcomes and when it creates new problems
  • The people and culture considerations that influence whether two firms can operate well together
  • How to prepare years in advance for a sale, merger or internal transition
  • Why organic growth, a strong online presence and consistent marketing still shape long-term stability
