HOUSTON'S MONROE VOS JOINS CAPTRUST

RALEIGH, N.C., March 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CAPTRUST Financial Advisors (CAPTRUST) announced today the addition of Monroe Vos Consulting (Monroe Vos).

The firm brings its entire team of 17 colleagues to CAPTRUST and more than $5.8 billion in assets.

"The genesis of Monroe Vos was to avoid conflicts of interest and to put clients first—and the alignment of these values led us to choose CAPTRUST. CAPTRUST's culture and philosophy have a lot of similarities to ours at Monroe Vos. We had commonality when it comes to the care of the client," said Vos.

This addition bolsters CAPTRUST's presence in Houston and Birmingham, joining the firm's existing wealth, retirement plan, and endowment and foundation practices in these regions.

CAPTRUST's care for the community through the CAPTRUST Community Foundation is just another proof statement for why we are an excellent fit together," said Vos. "We have a long future ahead by joining CAPTRUST, and our clients will benefit from it."

"Monroe Vos has been a leader in our industry for decades, and we are thrilled to welcome them to CAPTRUST," said Rick Shoff, managing director of CAPTRUST's Advisor Group.
