Hightower Advisors (“Hightower”) today announced that Boston Hill Advisors, part of the Hightower community since 2023, has joined Hightower Signature Wealth (“HTSW”), Hightower’s fully integrated national wealth management practice. The transaction advances Hightower’s continued expansion of HTSW with established advisory practices seeking greater scale and centralized capabilities.

Founded in 2006, Boston Hill Advisors provides wealth management, investment solutions and financial planning to individuals, families and institutions. The practice draws on deep investment and asset management experience and oversees approximately $1.6 billion* in assets under management.

“Boston Hill Advisors is a strong addition to HTSW, with a talented team, extensive investment experience and a longstanding commitment to clients,” said Larry Restieri, Chief Executive Officer of Hightower. “As we continue to build HTSW as an integrated national practice, we are focused on bringing together teams that share our commitment to a highly personalized advisory approach. Boston Hill Advisors embodies that vision and will further strengthen the collective capabilities we bring to clients.”

As part of HTSW, Boston Hill Advisors will join an integrated practice that brings together investment management, financial planning, operations, technology, compliance, marketing and client service. This model combines the experience, insights and relationships of local advisory teams with the resources and capabilities of a national organization, allowing advisors to remain deeply focused on their clients while benefiting from greater scale, collaboration and support. “Over the past two decades, we’ve continued to grow and evolve alongside our clients’ shifting needs,” said Joseph J. Trainor, CFA, Wealth Advisor, Managing Director at Boston Hill Advisors. “Moving under HTSW positions our team for the future without changing the values that have guided us since day one.”

Boston Hill Advisors serves clients throughout the greater Boston area from offices in North Andover and Natick, Massachusetts, both of which remain in place following the transaction. The practice has a staff of 18, including 11 advisors.

“Our partnership with Hightower over the past three years has given us a clear view of what we can accomplish together,” said Michael F. Edwards, CFA, Wealth Advisor, Managing Director at Boston Hill Advisors. “Joining HTSW strengthens our ability to carry on our mission of helping clients navigate complexity with confidence and clarity.”

Following closing in late August, HTSW has more than $40 billion in assets under management*, more than 130 advisors and more than 30 locations nationwide. Hightower expects to announce additional HTSW acquisitions throughout 2026.
