San Rafael, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/26/2015 --"Tom Coté has been chosen to head EQIS's 401(k) effort," said Scott Winters, CEO and Co-founder of the asset management and financial technology company.

"We're excited to be able to offer true managed account 401(k) plans with no minimum account balance. Individuals are typically invested directly in securities rather than bundled in mutual funds.

"Throughout his career, Tom has worked with many 401(k) plans and their participants as their advisor. He understands the unique process and democratization of the services we are offering and will convey this uniqueness to the advisor community," said Mr. Winters.

Previously, Mr. Coté was a Principal and owner of Total Solution Financial Partners, a financial services consulting firm providing a broad range of sales and support to the retirement plan and wealth management marketplace. He has held key positions with Fidelity Investments, Federated Investors, The Pacific Stock Exchange, and Security Pacific National Bank.
