Attracted by the firm’s national reputation, fee-only structure, and multi-generational approach, Peter Racen has merged RACEN Wealth Management into Moneta and joined the independent RIA as a partner on the Gast Freeman Troyer Team.
The RACEN team comprises four partners; there are six Certified Financial Planners and two Certified Public Accountants.
The team’s footprint includes personnel in St Louis, Chicago, and the Washington DC area, with clients located across the country and internationally.
“I could do financial planning at any firm or pick up scale by adding anyone with a book of business; I chose Moneta because they offer so much more than that,” Racen, a 23-year industry veteran, said. “One big driver for us was Moneta being a fee-only RIA, where we could provide true fiduciary services.”
