My Mission Statement

Eric Rosen: My Story
As a 30-year veteran of the financial services industry, Eric has been providing his services to a wide range of clientele including individuals, families and small business owners. Eric’s primary goal is to understand his clients’ needs on a deep level, helping them reach their complex financial goals.
Originally from Charleston, South Carolina, Eric attended the University of Maryland at College Park before graduating with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting from the Sy Syms School of Business at Yeshiva University in New York City. Shortly after graduating, Eric joined Gruntal & Co. and started out in their training program, eventually building his way up to becoming a Financial Advisor. Eric moved his practice to Smith Barney in 2000, Merrill Lynch in 2006, and then Morgan Stanley in 2014, where he currently serves as a vice president.
As a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor (CRPC ®), Eric understands how each client has a unique set of challenges and goals they’d like to reach. To accomplish this, he’ll utilize Morgan Stanley’s vast resources to formulate individualized strategies and deliver an array of services in the way that is most appropriate.
Eric has lived in Great Neck since 2000 and has four sons, the oldest of whom got married in March 2020. He previously served as a president of his synagogue, Young Israel of Great Neck, as well as a coordinator and coach in his local Little League. In his free time, he enjoys being with his family and rooting for the Atlanta Braves and Miami Dolphins.

My Process
Clients are so much more than a data point in a portfolio – they are unique individuals with families, responsibilities and hobbies. When it comes to important financial decisions, clients deserve similarly unique and unbiased guidance to reach their goals, and it’s why each plan I develop is tailored for a specific client. To help develop these plans, I work off 4 main pillars:
1. Listen & Understand
The first and most crucial step to constructing a personal strategy is to have an in-depth conversation to better understand your current financial situation, what’s important to you and your loved ones, and what your long-term goals are. My goal in this phase is to learn about the values which shape your decisions and identify challenges and situations unique to your situation.
2. Analyze & Assess
While building out your strategy, I will review your current financial situation in order to identify the impact of unexpected life events and potential shortfalls. In this step, I may also contact your CPA and estate attorney to understand your existing estate plan, so I can help ensure the strategies I recommend are cohesive and fully coordinated.
3. Propose & Implement
After our initial conversation, I will develop a customized strategy I feel is designed to achieve your specific goals. With your approval, we can begin implementation of your strategy and pave the way for a long-lasting partnership.
4. Monitor & Adapt
Strategies should be dynamic, always evolving depending on circumstances. As I implement your strategy, I will continually monitor your situation and determine the likelihood of reaching your goals. I’ll oversee your performance towards your goals through ongoing calls and meetings. I may recommend adjustments over time, due to changing market conditions or changes in your circumstances, to help keep you on track towards achieving your goals.

1When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.
For more information, please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Client Relationship Summary.
2Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
