About Richard Rosbach
Richard A. Rosbach
Branch Manager
First Vice President
Financial Advisor
An experienced Financial Advisor and co-founder of The Rosbach Rice Group at Morgan Stanley, Rick has dedicated his career to serving the specialized needs of successful professionals, business leaders and families living in the greater Bellingham area and around the country. He enjoys educating clients on how to create and implement an effective financial plan and helping them make more informed and confident decisions about their wealth.
Growing up on the east coast, Rick had a strong work ethic and an affinity for math. He also enjoyed helping others – from the time he was a teenager washing dishes and working at Kmart to managing the local Blockbuster video store when he was attending Franklin and Marshall College. It was during his college years that he met Winnie, his future wife and business partner. Winnie’s father was a highly successful advisor at Merrill Lynch. He immediately recognized Rick’s strong attributes and encouraged him to consider a career in financial services. In 2002, Rick became a Financial Advisor at Merrill and two years later teamed up with his father-in-law. Winnie joined the practice in 2011.
Today, Rick enjoys working with like-minded clients who value and appreciate the level of skill and service he and his team deliver. His goals-based process begins with asking the right questions and listening intently. This information then serves as the foundation for the development of a comprehensive plan and investment portfolio that reflects each client’s goals for the future. Rick receives great satisfaction knowing he is helping make a significant impact on the quality of his clients’ lives and often becomes one of the most important relationships to their families.
Rick believes balance is vital to a happy life. Outside of the office, his life centers on a love for his family and community. Rick is a team manager for WFC Rangers soccer team, a Washington State licensed Soccer Referee, and a Board Member of the Bayside Swim Club. A proud Phi Kappa Sigma alumni, Rick is a huge movie buff, loves watching soccer (Go Sounders!) and enjoys traveling and outdoor adventures with Winnie and the family, and their two dogs.
