UBS Wealth Management Hires Former UHNW Merrill Team In Florida

UBS Wealth Management Americas has added The Parker-Harrigan Group - latterly of Bank of America Merrill Lynch - to its office in Fort Lauderdale, FL.  

The Parker-Harrigan Group is led by advisors Robert Harrigan and Scott Parker, who were part of Merrill’s ultra high net worth private banking and investment group, UBS confirmed.

Harrigan and Parker managed about $545 million in client assets with their team at Merrill and had a T-12 production of about $4.2 million.

UBS Wealth Management Americas made a similar move in April, nabbing three financial advisors from Morgan Stanley in Phoenix, AZ, and Indianapolis, IN, with $467 million in combined assets under management.
