The advisors are expected to join the firm with about $1.85 billion in client assets and some $10 million in yearly fees and commissions.
Scott Siegel, Mehmet Kirdar and Michael O'Hara moved to Morgan Stanley from JPMorgan Chase (JPM), while Joseph Carmody came over from UBS (UBS), which last week recruited a New Jersey-based team from Morgan Stanley with some $4.8 billion in assets and $10 million in yearly production.
