A Wealth Management Advisory Council Sponsored Event

We are exploring a different format for this upcoming Wealth Management Excellence Summit and attendees should expect a completely different experience. Join us as we take a more intimate approach to the practices and decisions you make as wealth managers. At each roundtable you, as an attendee, speak directly to your peers about topics relating to the practice of wealth management. Share your thoughts and experiences and ask the questions you want answered in smaller groups. We expect a mix of knowledge levels as each conversation starter will help promote learning as well as actionable tips. Join the discussion that seeks to be directly applicable and practical to your business as a wealth manager.

Be assured, this Wealth Management Excellence Summit - as always - welcomes all knowledge levels as we push to help newer and experienced practitioners alike to “bend the curve” of wealth management knowledge.

Please join us!!! You will have the chance to discuss two of your top three topics:

  • Investments - Asset Allocation.
  • Planning - Trusts and Estates.
  • Investments - Equities.
  • Practice Management - Business Development / Retention.
  • Practice Management - Client Communication & Behavior.
