Inspirational Black advisers who are leading the way
As we celebrate Black History Month in February, it’s a time to celebrate the contributions and reflect on the sacrifices made by African Americans in all sectors of society, including the finance industry. Although diversity is still lacking within the field of finance, with African Americans representing less than 2% of certified financial planners, there is hope because of all those making moves along the way. In honor of Black History Month, here are some advisers who have inspiring stories and visions that they follow through on, leading to achievement and success. They have launched firms and ideas without letting obstacles get in their way.
