Capital Wealth Advisors expands presence in the Mid-Atlantic region

Capital Wealth Advisors (CWA), an independent financial advisory firm headquartered in Naples,  announced the opening of a full-service office in Erie, Pa. The new office builds upon the firm’s presence in the Mid-Atlantic Region, which began a year ago with the addition of several experienced local professionals and then opening of an office in Johnstown, Pa.

Located at 2626 W. Eighth St., the office will offer a wide range of services, including wealth advisory, financial planning, estate and legacy planning, and risk management. It will support existing clients and families across the region as well as new customers, with a focus on highly personalized service.

The office is led by Benton H. Elliott Jr., CWA Managing Director of Private Wealth Management. With more than three decades of financial services industry experience, Elliott supports business development across the Mid-Atlantic region, specializing in high-net-worth clients, foundations, and institutions. Prior to joining CWA, he served as Senior Vice President – Market Executive at FNB Wealth Management.

“We are extremely happy to open our doors in the landmark Colony Plaza of Erie, which represents a key market for us strategically within the greater Mid-Atlantic Region,” said William N. Beynon, President, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Partner of CWA. “Under Benton’s leadership, this new office will support continued growth and expansion throughout northwestern Pennsylvania.”
