Elite Advisory Team Launches Atlanta-Based Anchyra Partners, an RIA Aimed Squarely at Ultra-High-Net-Worth Clients

The Founders, Who Previously Managed $2.6 Billion, Look to Institutional-Investing Expertise and Scalable Infrastructure to Spur Organic and Inorganic Growth

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dynasty Financial Partners welcomes Anchyra Partners, a new independent registered investment advisory firm based in Atlanta. The team previously managed $2.6 billion in client assets. Anchyra will focus on ultra-high-net-worth clients and multi-family offices and expand through both organic growth and acquisitions.

Robert Durham, Zack Cloud, and Brian Gately founded Anchyra to combine institutional investment expertise with state-of-the-art technology and infrastructure. Mr. Durham previously served as Managing Director and Regional Director at Stephens Inc. Mr. Cloud and Mr. Gately were vice presidents at Goldman Sachs.

“We’ve engineered Anchyra to support elite advisors who want to build something to last,” said Mr. Durham, who serves as CEO and leads the firm’s recruiting and acquisition strategy. “We’re focused on creating an environment where experienced professionals can grow their businesses, contribute as partners, and deliver the kind of service sophisticated clients demand.”

“In doing our due diligence, we realized that the independent wealth space was best for our clients, “ Mr. Durham added. “The technology and investment opportunities — including more complex investments and private market plays — available to independents today delivers a client experience that is almost second to none.”

Mr. Durham, Mr. Cloud, and Mr. Gately plan to grow Anchyra by acquiring independent advisory firms and partnering with like-minded advisors seeking to leave captive environments in select U.S. markets. They’re focused on practices with strong client relationships, strong books of business, and a desire for equity alignment. They aim to scale Anchyra steadily by adding firms that contribute both revenue and leadership.

The firm relies on Dynasty for core infrastructure, transition support, and long-term strategic guidance — resources Anchyra will use to scale efficiently while maintaining its commitment to high-touch client service.

The firm takes its name from the Greek word for “anchor” — a symbol of stability, tenacity, and the firm’s long-term commitment to its clients and partners.
