PCM Encore, an independent fiduciary wealth management firm, has been announced as an official sponsor of the Benzinga Awards 2026, scheduled for November 19, 2026. The awards honor financial companies, products, and platforms that excel in serving customers across banking, credit cards, crypto, investing, lending, retirement, taxes, and more. PCM Encore joins fellow sponsors Direxion, FinancialMarkets.media, and Priority Gold in supporting this year's program, which brings together leading financial service providers, fintechs, and investment firms to celebrate innovation and excellence in serving investors and consumers.
The sponsorship coincides with a significant milestone for PCM Encore: as of September 2026, the firm has surpassed $2 billion in client assets under management. This achievement underscores the firm's rapid growth and its ability to attract clients seeking a personalized, client-first approach to wealth management. PCM Encore grew out of the multi-billion-dollar family office of CEO Michael Paulus, a growth investor and entrepreneur with decades of experience building companies. “We built PCM Encore around the standard we wanted for our own family: thoughtful advice, transparency, and a team that brings every part of a client’s financial life together,” said CEO Mike Paulus. “Supporting the Benzinga Awards is a natural extension of that philosophy, and we’re proud to support a program that recognizes innovation and a better experience for investors.”
PCM Encore serves individuals, trusts, and family offices with a personalized, client-first approach. Its specialized team separates financial planning from investment management, matching each client with professionals in retirement planning, tax and estate planning, risk management, and investment management. Through its affiliated entity, PCM Tax, clients may also access in-house tax and estate planning, including exit and liquidity planning, tax preparation, entity structuring, and tax-efficient asset placement. Clients meeting certain criteria may access family office services without an additional fee.
The firm's sponsorship of the Benzinga Awards 2026 signals its growing influence in the wealth management space and its alignment with a program that recognizes innovation and excellence. For an independent fiduciary firm that has recently crossed the $2 billion mark, supporting an event that celebrates the best in financial services reinforces its commitment to transparency and client-centric advice.
