| How LibertyFi Helped Carnegie Wealth Management Transform Its Service Offering | Carnegie Wealth Management is an independent, employee-owned and operated investment management firm with $150 million in assets under management. After acquiring Carnegie Wealth, CEO Scott Sheffer was determined to offer his clients the best possible experience. This commitment to service led Sheffer to select the Envestnet unified advice platform as the technology around which he would optimize the firm. To implement his vision, Sheffer realized he needed help tailoring Envestnet’s sophisticated technology to his practice’s specific needs. In 2017, Sheffer contacted the team at LibertyFi for help. |
