Merrill Lynch has landed a $3.3 billion-in-assets team from UBS.
 
In an announcement Monday, Merrill said the team led by F. Michael Covey, Tom Kane and Mark Wiktor have joined Merrill in Chicago, working as the CKW Team.
 
All three are managing directors in Merrill’s Private Banking & Investment Group, which serves high-end clients and advisors.
 
The three advisors joined from UBS Private Wealth, a similar unit for high-net-worth clients, where they worked for nearly a decade. Six staffers also made the move to the Merrill office at 540 West Madison Street in Chicago.
 
A Merrill spokeswoman said the team leaders were not available for interviews. A UBS spokesman declined comment.
