The addition of Mill Creek, which advises approximately $12 billion in assets, deepens Pathstone's regional presence and further strengthens Pathstone's talent pool, services and capabilities aimed at serving ultra-high-net-worth families, single family offices, and institutions
PHILADELPHIA, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Pathstone, a privately owned multigenerational wealth management and family office firm serving ultra-high-net-worth families, single family offices, and institutions across the United States, today announced that effective June 1st, 2026, it has combined with Mill Creek Capital Advisors, LLC ("Mill Creek").
