Excellent reporting on a developing story in the TAMP world. Surprised to see the Parent Co. wanting to unload the whole thing but never fully understood their motivations for buying a majority stake in the first place. AMK is a solid bellweather organization many would argue the market leader among turnkey platforms and they sport better margins than some of the large RIA Aggregators. It will be interesting to see if there is a private equity buyer that is interested and if so what/how they believe they can do to to grow and improve the performance of AssetMark from here forward.
