PCM Encore, a technology-forward, independent fiduciary wealth management firm, has been announced as an official sponsor of the Benzinga Awards 2026, according to a release distributed via NEWMEDIAWIRE. The awards, scheduled for November 19, 2026, recognize financial companies, products, and platforms that serve customers best across banking, credit cards, crypto, investing, lending, retirement, taxes, and more. PCM Encore joins fellow sponsors Direxion, FinancialMarkets.media, and Priority Gold in supporting the 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 major milestone for PCM Encore: as of September 2026, the firm has surpassed $2 billion in client assets under management. This growth underscores the firm's expansion from its origins as 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,” Paulus said. “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 Benzinga Awards 2026, details of which are available at Benzinga Awards 2026, will take place on November 19, 2026. The event is expected to draw attention to the financial companies and platforms that are raising the bar for customer service and innovation. For PCM Encore, the sponsorship represents an opportunity to align its brand with excellence in the financial services industry, potentially increasing its visibility among prospective clients and partners.
With $2 billion in assets under management, PCM Encore has reached a scale that positions it as a significant player in the wealth management space. The firm's employee-owned, open-architecture model and its focus on comprehensive private wealth management may appeal to high-net-worth individuals and family offices seeking integrated financial solutions. As the firm continues to grow, its sponsorship of the Benzinga Awards could help it attract new clients and reinforce its commitment to transparency and client-first advice.
