MANCHESTER, N.H., May 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Steward Partners Global Advisory, LLC, an employee-owned, full-service independent partnership associated with Raymond James Financial Services, Inc. (member FINRA/SIPC), today announced that the McCormick-Spain Wealth Management Group has joined Steward Partners' fast growing New England presence. The new team joins from Wells Fargo and is comprised of financial advisors Wayne McCormick, CFP®, ChFC®, and Steven Spain, who together bring more than 47 years of experience to the firm.

"Wayne and Steven are both welcome additions to our fast-growing team in New England," said Hy Saporta, Steward Partners' president and chief operating officer. "The fact that so many high-performing and respected advisors continue to see value in our model is exciting, and we think reflects an increased desire among advisors across the country for greater independence."

"The growth we've already had in that region this year has been unprecedented and we're excited to continue that momentum into the second half of 2018."

McCormick and Spain together oversee more than $175 million in client assets and will join Steward Partners' existing office in Manchester, one of three offices that Steward operates in New Hampshire. The McCormick-Spain Wealth Management Group focuses on helping clients build, manage, preserve and transition their wealth, and believe that a goals-based planning process should always be a focal point for each of its client relationships.

"We're very pleased to welcome Wayne and Steven, who share our values and longstanding philosophy that clients' interests come first," said Scott Curtis, president of Raymond James Financial Services.
