DUBLIN, OHIO – Ascend Advisory Group is proud to announce that it has hit the $2B assets under management mark (as of 3/28/24).

 

CEO Tony Reilly remarked, “From our early days our intentions were to serve families through investment planning. And if we did that we knew our assets would grow. To think we’ve just crossed such a remarkable number is amazing.”

 

He went on to say, “When we first started Ascend with $27M in assets under management in 2001, we knew our two primary drivers were to serve our clients and grow the talent at the firm. I’m excited to see us cross the $2B mark (as of 3/28/24) and I’m equally excited to know that the talent at the firm continues to grow with 30+ professional serving clients in 44 states.”

 

The company recently moved to larger headquarters in Dublin Bridge Park, Dublin, Ohio. And with the continued growth, they have increased their staff three times since 2001, to ensure that they can be diligent with their client follow through.

 

Reilly commented, “What started with three advisors has evolved and grown through the careful selection of individuals who share that same family-centered approach. Though our company has grown, we remain steadfast and true to our mission.”
