Bluespring Acquires $750M Arizona Husband-Wife Team

Bluespring Wealth Partners, an acquirer of independent RIAs and hybrid wealth management firms, has acquired KDI Wealth Management, a Scottsdale, AZ-based husband-and-wife-team overseeing more than $750 million in client assets.

The firm is run by Kevin Dick, CEO and wealth advisor, and Carrie Dick, president and wealth advisor, along with partner Shane Keith, VP and wealth advisor. The 14-person firm was founded in 2005.

The KDI team offers wealth and retirement planning, estate planning, cash flow management, tax planning and more.

“Bluespring’s dedication to fostering entrepreneurship deeply resonated with us,” said Kevin Dick. “We’re excited to have a partner that respects our vision for the business. With Bluespring we will be able to elevate our capabilities, expand our reach, and continue to deliver exceptional value to our clients.”

In addition to their partnership with Bluespring, KDI is also joining the Kestra Financial wealth management platform.

“The fact that KDI is able to leverage our wealth management platform while also gaining the guidance and expertise of our colleagues at Bluespring is a perfect example of our vision in action,” added Stephen Langlois, president of Kestra Financial.
