PNC Global Investment Servicing has rebranded its ADVISORport, its managed accounts servicing subsidiary which serves wealth management firms, as PNC Managed Investments.

"By incorporating PNC into our name, financial and investment advisors will associate the essential qualities of scale, investment expertise and customization of the PNC brand with our business unit," said AJ Harper, president, PNC Managed Investments.

The clients of PNC Managed Investments and its affiliates include broker/dealers, banks, trust companies and registered investment advisory (RIA) and wealth management firms, representing over 400,000 accounts and $88 billion.
