CONCORD, Calif., April 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AssetMark (NYSE: AMK), a leading wealth management platform for financial advisors, is excited to announce that Carrie Hansen, the company's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, has been named COO of the Year for the 2023 OnCon Icon Awards by OnConferences. The OnCon Icon Awards recognize exceptional operations leaders worldwide, with winners selected based on peer nomination and voting. Among hundreds of nominees, Hansen received the most votes based on her contributions to AssetMark, the financial services industry, and her community in the areas of organizational impact, innovation, and thought leadership.
Hansen has more than 25 years of operational leadership experience in the financial services industry. Currently, she is responsible for leading AssetMark's service and operations functions, including advisor services, trade operations, account operations, reporting, and facilities, while also overseeing all custodial relationships, including AssetMark Trust Company, where she is Chair of the Board.

Throughout her tenure, she has been instrumental in growing AssetMark's platform and service solution into a best-in-class, full-service integrated support function that can be tailored to meet the individual advisor's specific third-party asset management needs.
