Creating Wealth
Through Client Success

We believe, like most successful people, owning a business is the most efficient way to create wealth. However, we also know how hard it is to make the decision to leave a major firm not knowing if you’ll have the necessary resources to support your clients and grow your business. While technology allows most firms to offer similar tools and platforms how do you decide on which firm is the firm for your career?

“Pinnacle has allowed me to provide my client’s the attention and professional guidance to navigate their way to financial independence more so than any employer that I’ve ever worked for. After 11 years at Pinnacle I would never entertain returning to a regional firm or wirehouse again.”

Rich Green
Financial Advisor, Syracuse, NY

“Pinnacle enables my client-first investment approach. From its fee and risk transparency to its support for global investments, I have the support and confidence I need to provide my clients with the service they deserve.”

Rosalie Schlaen, CFP®, CIMA®, CRPC®
First Vice President – Investments, International Client Advisor, Miami, FL

“After working at a wirehouse for 25 years, moving to Pinnacle was the best decision of my career. From day one, I was asked ‘what can we do to help you grow your business.’ This never happened at my old firm. You feel like we are all on the same page. What’s best for my clients always comes first.”
