RAMON, Calif., March 12, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Diamond Group Wealth Advisors, a Northern California-based wealth management firm, today announced that it has merged with Ora Citron, a private wealth management firm, based in Walnut Creek, CA. Effective immediately, Ora Citron will begin operating with The Diamond Group Wealth Advisors. They will continue to serve their clients using both offices, located in Walnut Creek and San Ramon, California.
"We felt strongly that there was a powerful connection between our two businesses," said Marilyn Suey, founder, and CEO of the Diamond Group Wealth Advisors. "We have known each other for several years and admire how similar our values and the processes that we both use to serve our clients."
"Joining forces with Marilyn and her team is a natural fit for my business and allows me to focus on delivering a superior client experience for my passion serving women in transition," said Ora Citron, founder, and CEO of Ora Citron Wealth Management. "We have found with the 'power of two' we can make an even bigger impact on our clients, their families, businesses and the causes they care about deeply."

Both firms have a passion to serve women as well. Marilyn Suey is the founder of the Savvy Women Community where she hosts events to provide education, information and support women to build a brighter future for themselves, their families and the causes they care about deeply. Ora Citron has been a champion in the financial life planning for "Women in Transition" for ten years. They both are at the forefront of building financial life planning programs that serve the needs of women, whether married, single or in a life transition.
