San Francisco-based Perigon Wealth Management hired Jonathan Robbins as General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer, and Michael Mignosi in the newly created role of Director of Organic Growth.
Before Perigon, Robbins was Senior Vice President and Chief Compliance Officer for LPL Financial’s advisory businesses. Robbins has served as Chief Compliance Officer at Edelman Financial Engines, an attorney with Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati and Patton Boggs and an Executive Director and Senior Counsel at Morgan Stanley in San Francisco. He will report to Perigon CEO Arthur Ambarik.
“We strive to create a culture of partnership among our leadership team that serves our advisors’ best interests,” Ambarik said. “We worked closely with our private-equity partner Constellation Wealth Capital to identify the right people with the experience and potential to continue growing with our team. It was critical to find people who share Perigon’s core values of accountability, authenticity and positivity. Jonathan and Michael embody these characteristics, and we’re thrilled to have them both on board.”
“The RIA space has developed a great deal in the past five years, and I’ve been incredibly impressed with the rapid and sustained growth of Perigon,” Robbins said. “I look forward to working closely with Art and the entire executive team to build a legal and compliance program that will enable Perigon to achieve its goals.”
Mignosi most recently served as Director, Marketing at Cresset Partners. He will report to Maria Daley, Perigon’s Head of Advisor Success and Integration. In his new role, Mignosi will identify and support organic growth opportunities for advisors.
In October, Perigon announced the addition of David Scarpello as CFO, Brian McGunnigle as Director of Operations and Debra Dunham as Director of Transitions and Integrations. In July, the firm hired Rafia Hasan as CIO.
Perigon has added teams and offices across six markets since December 2021. The firm held $8.2 billion in client assets as of June 30. In January, Constellation Wealth Capital took a minority stake in Perigon.
