Arax Investment Partners, the multi-partner wealth platform backed by PE player RedBird Capital continues to strengthen its position in the industry with a strategic addition in Colorado.
On Tuesday, Arax Partners unveiled the integration of SRS Capital Advisors into its wealth management platform, a move set to enhance its service offerings and accelerate growth.
Founded in 2004, SRS Capital Advisors specializes in tailored wealth management solutions for high-net-worth families, individuals, businesses, and foundations.
The firm, headquartered in Denver with additional offices in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, manages approximately $1.7 billion in assets under management. SRS has experienced significant growth by advocating for an independent, fiduciary approach and offering a personalized client experience.
David Simon, managing director and co-founder of SRS Capital Advisors, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership.
“Our partnership with Arax promises substantial improvements in service, operations and technology, enabling us to scale operations, particularly our capabilities in financing, estate and tax planning,” he said in a statement.
“Our values of integrity, research and discipline are well matched with Arax’s strategic outlook, allowing us to continue to provide best-in-class services to our clients, both existing and new,” the veteran with 24 years of experience said.
Arax CEO Haig Ariyan emphasized the advantages of the integration, noting that SRS’s unique and customized approaches to wealth management enhances Arax’s capabilities while aligning with its broader goal to expand its multi-platform strategy.
“As we continue to scale our multi-platform approach to wealth management, this strategic partnership will compound opportunities for advisors and their clients across the Arax platform.”
SRS will maintain its leadership under managing directors David Simon, Michael Riordan, and Patrick South, who collectively bring forty years of industry experience.
Mike Zabik, partner at RedBird, touted the new integration as proof of Arax’s ability to “attract the best in the business” through its “differentiated multi-platform wealth management strategy.”
“Pure-play, advisory fee-only RIAs are a core pillar of Arax’s multi-boutique strategy and SRS is key piece of that vertical as we look to continue to scale and diversify,” Zabik said.
Relationships are key to our business but advisors are often slow to engage in specific activities designed to foster them.
