Given the pace of CAPTRUST’s acquisitions, the firm is commonly labeled as an RIA Aggregator—but that’s only a part of its story. CAPTRUST has a laser focus on organic growth across all client types, according to a recent interview between Gaining Perspective podcast series host Robert Huebscher and Rush Benton, senior director of wealth management for CAPTRUST.
In the episode titled “How CAPTRUST Blends Organic and Inorganic Growth,” Benton spoke with Huebscher at Schwab’s annual IMPACT conference in San Diego. The 20-minute conversation touched on CAPTRUST’s dual focus on organic and inorganic growth, and what the firm plans to accomplish in 2020.
The M&A deal maker also gives listeners his thoughts on the key drivers of firm valuation, red flags that can pull a valuation down, and the importance for sellers seeking growth to understand the opportunities available through taking significant equity in another firm.
