Wealth management advisory and coaching firm Carson Group has hired Christopher Page as vice president of mergers and acquisitions as the business continues to ramp up minority investments in US advisory firms.

Page is moving from KCB Private Equity in Pasadena, California, where he led investment development, deal sourcing and origination. At Carson he will join a team of six M&A specialists.

Based in Omaha Nebraska, Carson manages approximately $16 billion in assets and serves around 36,000 client families across the US.

The Coury Firm
The former CEO and president of Boston Private, Clay Deutsch, has joined The Coury Firm’s board of advisors. The privately held multi-family office based in Pittsburgh said the appointment would bring "in-depth knowledge, experience and expertise" in driving organic and inorganinc growth at the MFO.

Prior to joining Boston Private, Deutsch was a senior partner at McKinsey & Company where he led organizations in strategy development, operations improvement, M&A, and divestiture and merger management. He serves on several non-profit boards in the healthcare, education and arts sectors.

“The firm is truly interdisciplinary, which allows it to provide broader, more elevated services beyond those offered by the typical RIA," Deutsch said.

The business was founded in 1984, and represents a global network of families, entrepreneurs, companies, and institutions. The Coury Firm also serves as a private investment office and a dedicated chief investment office for family offices and institutions.

It has offices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Los Angeles.
