Savant Wealth Management to Buy $483M Massachusetts RIA

Savant Wealth Management, a $20 billion registered investment advisor (RIA), is buying Wellesley, MA-based RIA The Relaxing Retirement Coach, which manages $483 million in assets.

The acquisition marks Rockford, IL-based Savant’s first in New England, and its fifth of the year. Terms of the deal, which is expected to close Friday, were not released.

The Relaxing Retirement Coach was founded in 2003 by Jack Phelps, who will become an owner-member in Savant and will be joined by five employees.

“Jack is a thought-leader who has built a unique and successful business helping people pursue their retirement goals. We were impressed by the community Jack and his team have built, and we are excited to join forces to continue their growth in New England,” said Brent Brodeski, Savant Wealth Management CEO.

Backed by private equity firms Kelso & Company and The Cynosure Group, Savant has been an active acquirer in 2023, adding firms in Georgia, Pennsylvania and South Carolina. Two notable acquisitions included $3.3 billion Atlanta-based Capital Directions and $1.5 billion Domani Wealth, based in Lancaster, PA.

Advisor Growth Strategies, LLC served as transaction advisor for The Relaxing Retirement Coach, Inc.
