Rudy Adolf's Buckingham meal ticket looks golden after the $35-billion RIA/TAMP absorbs Dan Goldie's $1 billion Loring Ward book and margins leap from 25 basis points to more like 70

The New York-based roll-up's gain is offshoot of Loring Ward deal where Goldie is the biggest client but was too big to buy until Focus capital could be tapped

RIA Biz thank you for your detailed coverage and reporting, this publication continues to distinguish with its persistency to go the extra mile and under the surface (Even when the firms and people may not make themselves fully cooperative, available, and transparent) so much more thought-provoking versus many of the other industry news outlets that have become full time event planners and agents of PR veneer.

Thank you, Jackie. We do try to cover the more interesting stories regardless of the level of cooperation, availability and transparency we get from protagonists. It's more than appreciated by our whole group here when it gets noticed by people like you. And, yes, we are mostly allergic to PR veneer and events, which are often a distracting, consuming version of marketing and PR.
