About Craig Bloom
As an Executive Director, Senior Portfolio Manager and Sports and Entertainment Director, Craig is responsible for all investment decisions, financial planning, and assists in the development of investment policy statements for our clients.
In his 35+ years of working in wealth and investment management, he has seen several nerve-racking bear and bull markets. Through it all, Craig has maintained a mature and disciplined approach to planning, managing, and helping his clients achieve their wealth goals. This kind of experience and maturity is what has fostered the longevity and trust in Craig’s relationship with his clients.
Our wealth management approach is to work closely and mentor our clients through the important stages of their life – birth of a child or grandchild, marriage (or divorce), death, and other significant life events. Working hand in hand with our clients through these events has yielded us long standing, multi-generational relationships with their families.
As a Sports and Entertainment Director, I understand the complexities and pressures athletes and entertainers face and the financial implications that come with that. Working closely with top professionals in the sports and entertainment industries and their personal confidantes, I help provide access to the products and services needed to build and preserve financial independence as their circumstances, goals and priorities continue to evolve.
