Wealth Enhancement, a national independent wealth management firm, announced it will be partnering with Ascent Private Wealth, a hybrid RIA in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
The team of two advisors and one support member oversees more than $240 million in client assets and is led by Steve Ford.
Jeff Dekko, chief executive officer of Wealth Enhancement, said, "Our partnership with Ascent Private Wealth reflects our continued commitment to partnering with firms that share our values and client-first mindset."
Dekko added, "We're excited about the depth of knowledge the Ascent Private Wealth team brings, particularly in serving business owners and navigating the complexities of generational wealth."
Founded in 2002, Ascent Private Wealth’s experience spans business and succession planning, investment management, and legacy and estate strategies.
Officials said that with a client base largely composed of business owners and entrepreneurs, Ascent is committed to working collaboratively to help families create, preserve, and steward their wealth across generations.
Said Ford: "After months of thoughtful consideration, we determined that Wealth Enhancement was the right strategic partner for our firm. Not only are they an excellent cultural fit, but they also bring the scale, resources, and forward-thinking approach needed to elevate our services to the next level."
The firms are expected to join forces on Dec. 31, 2025.
Williams Private Wealth Advisory and Consulting served as the advisor to Ascent Private Wealth.
