To ensure a smooth and seamless integration for clients, the transition will be executed over a carefully planned two-year phased process.

Several factors contributed to Artemis Wealth Advisors being chosen as the successor:

Seamless Integration with the Fidelity Platform: Both practices utilize the Fidelity platform, which is available through Private Advisor Group's multi-custody platform, ensuring that there will be no disruption to client services during this transition.
Strong, Long-Standing Client Relationships: The high-quality, long-standing relationships maintained by Rein Investments Advisor align with Artemis's values and enhance the combined firm's offerings.
Aligned Client Service Philosophy: Both practices share a commitment to delivering exceptional client service, making this partnership a natural fit. Mr. Rein will remain on the team to aid in the execution of the succession plan.
Trust: Mr. Rein and Mr. Wilson worked together earlier in their careers and maintained a relationship while building their independent businesses. While extensive due diligence was conducted by both parties, they ultimately became each other's top choice for the next phase in their respective practices' lifecycle.

"We are honored to continue the tradition of excellence that Jeff has established," said Mr. Wilson, Co-Founder of Artemis Wealth Advisors. "Our priority is to maintain the high level of service and advice that clients have come to expect."

"Private Advisor Group's guidance and support throughout this phased transition plan have been instrumental," added Mr. Staley. "We believe this careful approach will facilitate a smooth transition, ensuring that clients continue to receive the highest level of service and advice." He continued, "This is a special milestone as it marks our first acquisition and opens the door to future opportunities."
