Goldman Sachs is getting into the RIA breakaway business.

The storied investment bank and startup RIA custodian has revealed that it is providing custodial services to Beverly Hills Private Wealth, a new breakaway RIA in the tony Los Angeles suburb of Beverly Hills, Calif. led by a trio of former Merrill Lynch advisors.

The three advisors — Scott Shagrin, Ira Ravitz and Lisa Weiner — collectively managed $1bn in assets at the wirehouse, according to the RIA and Goldman Sachs. Ownership of the RIA is split between trusts set up by Shagrin and Ravitz, according to a Form ADV filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC); Shagrin’s trust has a majority stake.

‘We had a great run at Merrill, but it is time for the next chapter. Not just for us, but for our clients. And the future looks very bright,’ Ravitz said in a statement. Ravitz and Shagrin had worked at Merrill Lynch since 2006, while Weiner had been part of the team since 2013.
