CHICAGO, Dec. 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — HighTower announces that RDM Financial Group, Inc., a Westport, Connecticut-based investment advisor with $700 million under management, will become a partner of HighTower.

“Ron Weiner’s contributions to the industry and passionate advocacy for his clients are truly remarkable,” said HighTower Founder and CEO Elliot Weissbluth. “When a highly distinguished independent advisor who has run his own firm for many years decides to become a partner with us, it is a powerful validation of our platform, our brand and our financial strength.”

“After 35 years in the industry and 26 running RDM Financial Group, I recognized the need for access to world-class resources, scale and a greater variety of solutions for my clients’ needs,” said Ron Weiner, CEO, RDM Financial Group. “Years of due diligence revealed that the HighTower platform is the ideal destination for me and my clients.”

Mr. Weiner, who has been featured 12 times on Barron’s lists of the top financial advisors, will maintain his 15-person team at the firm’s Westport and Boca Raton, Fla. locations.
