Maybe each advisory shop can hire the other, and the whole thing will prove to be one big success! Unfortunately, the advisory opportunities are few and far between -- so competition is keen for this business. Most banks have no shortage of "in-house" experts, and prefer to keep their portfolios/strategies as confidential and private as possible. Most of these advisory shops will prove to be placeholders for the founders and staff -- something for the CV until one finds a more viable job.

In complete agreement with the previous comment, why don't they all just form one big entity? There seems to be too many of these boutiques floating around. I hope they don't cause "cross-advisorilization" similar to "cross-collateralization".. best of luck however!

One begins to wonder how many of these advisory boutiques can the market support? Best of luck to Mr. Gundy, but it will be a crowded path to travel.
