BNY Mellon Wealth Management emphasized that its Seattle office has “contributed significantly” to the strong growth of the firm’s western US region.

Stanley, who reports to regional president Jim Barnyak, previously worked at Cornerstone Advisors. He spent over 10 years as managing director of client management at the firm, overseeing wealth and investment planning for high net worth individuals.

Before joining Cornerstone, he was a partner on the wealth advisor team at Morgan Stanley, spending five years in the firm’s San Francisco office, and another five in Boston.

Meanwhile, earlier this month, BNY Mellon recruited former Northern Trust man Andy Chong as a senior wealth manager in Los Angeles, CA. In the previous week, BNY Mellon promoted Jeroen Kwist to lead its international business, spanning offices in London, New York, Miami, Cayman, Dubai and Hong Kong.
