Graystone Consulting, a business of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, announced the appointment of Robert Dow to one of the firm’s consulting group teams.
Dow will be based in Morgan Stanley’s private wealth management office in Chicago to further expand the existing footprint of Graystone Consulting. Prior to this, Dow spent 25 years at Northern Trust, where he founded the firm’s first dedicated non-profit advisory business.
“We are delighted to welcome Bob to Graystone Consulting,” said Marc Brookman, managing director. “The Shaffer Team is an industry leader serving Foundations, Endowments and non-profits, and Bob’s extensive experience and multi-disciplined approach to investment and fiduciary services, planned giving and asset servicing will further benefit our clients.”
“I am thrilled to be joining Graystone Consulting and The Shaffer team,” said Dow. “When considering this significant change, I thoroughly analysed what families and the board members and staff of universities, colleges and other nonprofits will need both today and in the future.”
