French term or phrase: intégrer un cabinet de Gestion de Patrimoine
A French friend of my daughter writes to us in French saying her husband has just done this after working for 20 years in a bank.
It is mainly intégrer that is the problem, I don't see how "integrate" would fit in here. Gestion de Patrimoine presumably means something like administration of estates or inheritances, but a translation of the whole phrase would be appreciated.
