CI Financial is buying Radnor Financial Advisors, an RIA based near Philadelphia with about $2.6 billion in client assets.
With this deal and another other recent transaction, the firm says its U.S. assets should soon hit $68 billion. (CI announced plans to acquire San Diego-based RIA Dowling & Yahnke, which works with $5.1 billion in assets, in May.)
The purchase is Toronto-based CI's Financial's 19th deal in the U.S. (including acquisitions by its affiliated RIAs) since January 2020 and its first in Pennsylvania.
"Radnor Financial Advisors is an exemplary RIA that is well recognized for its best-in-class client service and team … ," said CI Financial CEO Kurt MacAlpine, in a statement. "We look forward to helping them expand their services and continue to deliver for their incredible client base."
Founded in 1989, the RIA focuses on serving senior corporate executives and specializes in executive compensation and financial planning. Its team does accounting and income tax services, as well as fiduciary income tax-return preparation.
