In the Private Bank Unit, Mr. Morris led the firm's Canada Advisor Unit, and he later headed the development of Strategic Partners for the firm's Global Wealth Platform.

"After many years in the asset management and financial services industry, I'm thrilled to be joining a firm that is truly conflict-free and puts its client's needs above all else," said Mr. Morris. "I look forward to working closely with the team to deliver on the firm's client-centric model and help enhance outcomes for each and every investor with whom we work."

Mr. Morris began his career at Arthur Andersen & Co., where he earned his CPA designation. He is an active member of the Board of Trustees of LaSalle University, where he chairs the Strategic Planning and Assessment Committee, and previously led the Finance Committee.
