Our Story
Learn a little about our history and how we’re breaking the wealth management mold.
The genesis of a very large idea
The inspiration for Aspiriant wasborn in the late 1990s, a period when Americans were amassing large amounts of wealth. At the time, many of our founders were working as partners for the country’s most prom- inent advisors. Their clients included many newly affluent executives who needed a high level of support.
They needed help aligning their life goals with their assets; creating an investment strategy that reflected their
personal vision; planning their approach to taxes; and integrating financial planning, estate planning, philanthropy and more into one unified view.
These individuals and families required a new kind of multi- faceted resource. There were a few independent financial advisors around, but they didn’t offer the depth or size or long-term continuity clients needed. All the other available resources — like banks and brokerage houses — were compensated by selling products, not by putting clients’ needs first. Affluent families were experiencing unprecedented complexity, but no firm yet existed to help them.
Aspiriant is born
In 2008, our founders came together to establish that firm, and satisfy a glaring need. These kindred spirits — including Rob Francais, Tim Kochis, Linda Fitz, Bob Wagman, Ken Anderson, and Marc Primiani — committed the rest of their careers to building Aspiriant.
Each of these entrepreneurs would make vital contributions to our vision. But something in their DNA drove them to define the need more deeply than other firms, and aim higher with their solution.
Raising the bar
In the beginning, we spent a lot of time envisioning the ultimate wealth management firm. We wanted to provide clients an unprecedented level of personal attention and expert guidance.
To do it, we would act as true fiduciaries, by putting your interests first at all times. We would take ultimate responsibility for helping you define, plan and realize your life goals. We would integrate all the disciplines necessary for you to achieve financial clarity and prosperity. And we would pool client assets, to give you tremendous bargaining power and open up hard-to-access investment opportunities.
We set out to attract the nation’s finest talent, and then liberate those exceptional people to provide you an amazing service experience. We organized ourselves to remain durably independent and objective, with a hard-wired succession model and 100 percent employee ownership. And we created a culture united in its dedication to helping you live your ideal life.
Another headline here
Our pursuit of this “holy grail” of wealth management has attracted an exceptional community of people. This extends to both clients and team members, whose partnership over the years has shaped everything we do.
Everyone has his or her own story about how and why they became connected to the firm. Together, their stories create a larger narrative that unfolds in real time, as each new client and team member joins the Aspiriant family.
the first ten years —
putting the vision into practice
During our first decade, we’ve established ourselves as leaders in the independent wealth management business. We’re well on our way to building the organization we originally envisioned. We’ve added top talent, expanded our services, invested in technology
and built a sustainable ownership model that ensures our on-going independence. We’ve also created six ground-breaking, not-for- profit “access vehicles” that allow clients to pool their assets, drive down costs and benefit from exclusive investment opportunities.
organic growth
We’ve grown organically, one new client and one new advisor at a time. We’ve also grown “inorganically,” combining with great independent firms across the country who share our vision and culture. Today, Aspiriant is the product of seven stellar organizations that have come together as one team to do more for you. As of this publication, we’re approaching 200 team members, 64 of whom are partners in the firm. We serve clients from 11 offices coast to coast, and manage $12 billion in client assets.
The direct beneficiary of all this growth is you. You retain your intimate relationship with your advisor team — and you now have even more expert minds on your side when you need them. You also get to pool your assets with other Aspiriant clients and invest with multi-billion-dollar leverage. It’s the opposite of growth for growth’s sake. It’s growth for your sake.
This is still the beginning
We’ve made major progress since the early days of Aspiriant. In many ways, though, we’ve only just begun to deliver on our full potential. Each year, our methodical growth fuels our ability to attract talent, expand services, lower product costs, provide better training for team members and more — all to continue upgrading your client experience.
We’re inspired by what we’re building on your behalf, and proud of our progress. Still, the best is yet to come.
