Wealth Enhancement Group's Assets Top $81B

The U.S. economy can handle the Fed’s rate hikes — this year anyway.

Wealth Enhancement Group, an independent wealth firm, says that its advisors are working with $81.3 billion in client assets, including over $4 billion of brokerage assets held at LPL Financial, as of March 31. It also  made three key leadership appointments amid its continued growth in strategic markets and other developments.

Last year, the firm announced or closed 18 acquisitions, and so far in 2024, it has struck five transactions. The firm now has 115 offices across 26 states, including 17 in California, 15 in Minnesota, 11 in New York and 10 in Florida.

In 2023, Wealth Enhancement’s total asset inflows from new and existing clients increasing by 22% over the previous year, it’s highest level yet. According to its announcement Moday, the growth was fueled by diverse sources, including centralized digital marketing, partner referral programs and advisor-generated referrals.

“Reaching these significant milestones underscores our commitment to providing best-in-class financial advice and expanding our reach to serve more individuals,” CEO Jeff Dekko said in a statement. “Our growth trajectory continues this year, and we are eager to progress forward as a leading RIA platform.”
