Veteran Advisor Drew McLaughlin Joins Plancorp

Wealth management firm Plancorp announced the hiring of Drew McLaughlin, CPA, as a wealth manager.

Drew brings a background in wealth management, mergers and acquisitions and auditing to his new role, serving high net worth families and business owners with sound investment strategies and estate planning.   

“Anytime we have an opportunity to bring on a seasoned advisor with a strong background in accounting and finance only strengthens our wealth management team,” said Plancorp President Chris Kerckhoff. “Drew is a great addition to Plancorp as we continue to provide our clients with the resources and expertise that best meets their needs.”

Most recently, Drew served as a private wealth advisor for Enterprise Bank & Trust and Merrill Lynch. Prior to that, he worked in auditing for A.G. Edwards (now Wells Fargo Advisors), Ernst & Young and Deloitte & Touche (now Deloitte.). He enjoys serving as a client advocate whether it’s protecting personal finances when selling a business or creating a wealth transfer plan for multi-generational families.

“What attracted me to Plancorp was their academic-based investment philosophy and business succession model,” Drew said. “It says a lot about a company that is invested in its employees and dedicated to future generations of clients.”

Drew is an active member of his community, serving as a Board Member for the Alzheimer’s Association of St. Louis, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, The Little School of Ascension and the school’s athletic association. He lives in Chesterfield with his wife Liz and three children.
