About Michael Farah
A co-founder of The Rockport Group, Mike has a passion for helping clients meet their most important life goals.
He began his financial services career in 2000 after graduating from Texas A&M, Corpus Christi with a BBA in Business with an emphasis on Finance.
Over the years, he has earned a number of prestigious industry and Morgan Stanley designations that affirm his commitment to providing clients with meaningful and sometimes life-changing advice.
As a Senior Investment Management Consultant and Morgan Stanley-credentialed Portfolio Management Director, Mike manages assets on a discretionary basis for clients who would rather not make day-to-day investment decisions on their own. As a Certified Investment Management Analyst and Chartered Mutual Fund Counsellor, he researches third party managers, mutual funds, ETFs and individual securities in an effort to identify those worthy of consideration for client portfolios.
As an Insurance Planning Director, he has the knowledge and tools to help review and evaluate Life Insurance, Long-Term Care and Annuity solutions for income and asset protection. Mike played a key role in developing the team’s unique core and satellite investment strategy that can be customized to meet the needs of clients seeking growth, income and/or preservation of capital.
Outside the office, Mike spends much of his spare time giving back to his South Texas community. He is an avid supporter of The Boy Scouts of America, Rockport-Fulton Chamber of Commerce, The Aransas County ISD Education Foundation and the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Alumni Association. He has also coached youth sports for years and remains active in the Laguna Little League. In fact, Mike is especially proud that many of his former players, who have now entered adulthood, still refer to him as “Coach Mike.”
An active member of St. Paul’s Catholic Church, Mike enjoys fishing, hunting, camping and spending time with his wife Analisa and the third generation of Farahs to reside in South Texas - his four children, Michael, Christopher, Paige and Matthew.
Disclosure:
An investment in an exchange-traded fund involves risks similar to those of investing in a broadly based portfolio of equity securities traded on exchange in the relevant securities market, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The investment return and principal value of ETF investments will fluctuate, so that an investor's ETF shares, if or when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
