$1.2B Legacy Edge Appoints Christopher Weyrauch as CEO
Legacy Edge Advisors, a registered investment advisor based in Syosset, N.Y., with $1.2 billion under management, has appointed Christopher Weyrauch as its first chief executive officer. Weyrauch previously served as head of wealth management at Citizens Financial Group and spent nearly three decades at TIAA, where he held leadership roles including CEO and president of TIAA Life Insurance Company. The firm was founded by four former TIAA advisors who have since expanded their team to include additional professionals from both TIAA and Merrill Lynch. The founders sought a CEO to manage growth strategies while they continue client-facing work, with Weyrauch tasked with overseeing recruitment of new advisors and evaluating potential capital opportunities. Weyrauch will also help determine the firm’s approach toward external investment offers it has received frequently since its inception.
