Corient, one of the largest and fastest-growing national
wealth advisors in the U.S., today announced it has acquired the
multi-family office business of Geller & Company (“Geller
MFO”). Geller MFO is a premier New York City-based multi-family
office with $10.4 billion in assets under management and
advisement. This move reinforces Corient’s presence in one of the
nation’s largest markets and deepens the firm’s family office
capabilities.
Geller & Company LLC was founded in 1984 by Martin Geller, a
pioneer in the multi-family office industry. Geller MFO provides a
bespoke family office experience to ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW)
individuals and families through a sophisticated, integrated family
office platform that includes personal CFO and financial
management, tax advisory and compliance, estate and generational
wealth planning, financial reporting and accounting, and integrated
investment management. In joining Corient, the Geller MFO team and
its clients will gain access to a highly differentiated technology
platform, operational, regulatory and compliance infrastructure,
expanded investment capabilities, enhanced trust services,
significant scale, and increased capital.
“The fact that a firm of Geller’s stature has chosen to join
Corient speaks to the tremendous quality of our firm and the value
of our differentiated private partnership structure and business
model,” said Kurt MacAlpine, Partner and Chief Executive Officer of
Corient. “I’m excited to welcome Marty Geller as a leader in our
MFO business and his highly experienced team. We look forward to
adding their significant tax and CFO expertise and other
capabilities to our own, further enhancing our ability to provide
clients with bespoke wealth management solutions that go beyond
traditional wealth advisement.”
Mr. Geller said, “The Geller team has always put our clients at
the center of everything we do – delivering objective advice and
services as well as building lifelong relationships through the
exceptional talent of our team and collaborative, high performance
culture. We have been incredibly impressed with Corient and how its
core strengths and culture align closely with our own. We firmly
believe that Corient and Geller coming together will set the
standard of what it means to be a family office in the UHNW space,
which will result in continued advancement in how we develop our
talent and service our multigenerational clients.”
