A Personal Message
From Our Founder
The last 25 years have seen many changes in
the Securities Industry that I can safely say were
unimaginable. Some of the most prestigious firms
such as Lehman Brothers and Bear Sterns no
longer exist. If not for government bailouts, many
other large firms would have suffered the same fate.
One thing that has remained constant through these
volatile years has been the importance of a strong
relationship between clients and their advisors.
At Pinnacle, we understand this because our
management team has lived it both personally and
professionally. This important distinction has helped
us create a culture where clients, advisors and all
members of the Pinnacle Team are treated with
respect because they are all equally important to
our business. As you look further at our firm and
culture, Im confident you will see that our 20 years
of dedicated work have positioned Pinnacle to
continue its impressive growth into the future.
I thank you for your interest and look forward
to having you join our growing family.
Gregg Kidd,
Managing Partner, Founder

How long have you been a Financial Professional? How many more
years do you plan on working? Are you in the middle of your career?
