ALM First has officially acquired the institutional fixed income line of business from Detalus, a 20-year old asset management firm dedicated to providing objective advice. As a result of increased investment activity from ALM First’s more than 300 clients nationwide and the recent acquisition, the firm’s total assets under management now exceed $36 billion.
Former Detalus institutional fixed income clients, which include several depository institutions and insurance companies, will enjoy a comprehensive investment advisory solution that now includes investment accounting, enhanced reporting, additional fixed income specialist and hedging strategies. These new clients will also have full access to the ongoing investor education resources the ALM First team provides.
“We’re excited about this latest expansion and look forward to providing new resources and a broader range of solutions to this group of clients,” said Emily Hollis, CFA, CEO of ALM First (right). “As we continue to grow and expand, we believe all of our clients benefit from increased economies of scale and enhanced services.”
“ALM First’s guiding principle of putting clients’ best interests first and the breadth of asset liability management services they provide made them an ideal fit for this business line acquisition,” says Steve Rull, Managing Director & Owner of Detalus. “We’re confident that ALM First’s team of experts will deliver strong results for our former fixed income clients.”
