Kestra, the advisor platform, has signed up a new client in the form of a recently-created wealth management house.

Independent advisor platform Kestra Financial has added a recently-created business, The Strategic Wealth Management Group, to its platform, it announced yesterday.

The Strategic Wealth Management Group, based in Mansfield, Ohio, is made up of a team of five advisors, managing a total of $250 million of assets under management.

Jeremy Swank; Rob Danuloff; Rob Hassmann, Greg Kibler and Debbie Williams came together to create the firm after leaving their former broker-dealers, the statement said.
