MONUMENT, Colo., May 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Advisors Asset Management (AAM) has appointed Christopher Genovese as Director of RIA Services and he will be based in New York.

"This appointment reflects our commitment to meet the evolving needs of the RIA and family office communities in a consultative way," said Andrew S. Williams, President of AAM. "Chris's extensive experience in working with RIAs and family offices and his understanding of their unique needs are a tremendous asset to our firm as we look to expand and strengthen our relationships with financial advisors."

Mr. Genovese added, "I'm excited about the opportunity to deepen AAM's relationships with RIA and family offices. The firm already has long-standing relationships in these market segments, but many of our contacts don't yet know the full range of AAM's capabilities. I'm looking forward to changing that."
