NAPLES, Fla. - s4story -- Aviance Capital Partners, a boutique, 100% independently owned wealth management and financial planning firm headquartered in Naples, Florida, announced it has surpassed $1 billion in assets under management (AUM). The milestone marks a significant achievement in the firm's 17-year history, underscoring its disciplined investment approach, strong client retention, and commitment to independence.

"Reaching this milestone is a testament to our clients' trust and loyalty," said Jack Brown, Chief Investment Officer and Partner. "Many of our clients have been with us for over a decade and have referred friends and family. We've built our firm by delivering consistent, long-term results, maintaining transparency, and staying true to our personalized approach to wealth management."

Founded in 2008, Aviance Capital Partners manages assets for clients across Florida and beyond, including high-net-worth individuals, business owners, C-level executives, and special needs families. The firm also operates an additional office in Winter Park, FL to better serve clients throughout the state.

The firm has earned national recognition, being named one of Worth magazine's Top RIA Firms for 2025 and is distinguished by its low client-to-advisor ratio designed to ensure every client receives direct access to decision-makers and tailored portfolio management.

"We are a boutique firm with scale," said Brown. "We're large enough to provide the infrastructure, technology, and stability clients expect, yet small enough to maintain deep, personal relationships that often span multiple generations."

Aviance Capital Partners provides comprehensive wealth management uniquely tailored to each client's goals and life stage. Its expertise spans retirement income planning, tax-efficient investing, and personalized portfolio management, supported by an analytical, research-driven process. The firm's proprietary investment platform, designed entirely in-house, integrates its Aviance WealthPlan™ — a framework that brings together wealth management, tax strategy, and portfolio construction under one cohesive system. Aviance operates under a transparent, fee-based advisory model and works collaboratively with CPAs, attorneys, and other professionals to develop complete financial strategies.

"Our business has always been about people — our employees, our clients, and our community partners," said Alex Crevi, Partner and Portfolio Manager. "Our growth comes from doing right by our clients, providing value, and building relationships that last for generations."

Since its founding, Aviance Capital Partners has remained 100% employee-owned. Its partners emphasize staying independent to preserve their client-first culture.

"With $1 billion in assets, we've become an attractive target for would-be acquirers," said Crevi, "But our partners are in their 40s and 50s, and we're focused on building a lasting legacy. We want to stay true to our roots, providing exceptional client service and investment strategies through our analytical approach. This independence gives us the freedom to act in our clients' best interests."
