Keystone is described as an advisory firm employing a team-based approach that includes client access to accountants, attorneys, and financial planners “in a holistic way.”

“I have admired Creative Planning since my early days as a financial adviser,” Hagensen said in a statement.
He added that his team is in “perfect alignment” with Creative Planning’s “vision to provide holistic advice that spans far beyond investments.”
Overland Park, Kansas-based Creative Planning has more than $225 billion under management, with clients in 50 states and 65 countries, according to the announcement.
Creative Planning Chief Executive Peter Mallouk said the Keystone Wealthteam will be “such a phenomenal addition to the Creative Planning family.”
