Welcome to our Circle of Excellence!

KFG is an ensemble firm of practitioners providing Private Wealth Management Services. As we service the comprehensive Retirement Planning and Wealth Management needs of our clients, we are frequently asked for referrals to local businesses which provide quality goods and services to these households, as well as non-profit organizations which our clients might support as part of their financial planning process. We at KFG take these referrals seriously, since the related experience with these referrals can and will affect our client relationships. Accordingly, we developed the concept of a small business & non-profit organization (support your local community!) “Circle of Excellence”! Throughout 2007-2008, we solicited our client base, and strategic local advisory network, to develop a proposed list of candidates. These were, in turn, screened by KFG and mailed out to our clients. We undertook this process again for 2009-2010.The product of this collaborative effort was the development and production of the KFG “Circle of Excellence” Compendium for 2009-2010. This group of small business owners and non-profit organizations are also posted on our website. (www.kippfinancialgroup.com)These businesses and non-profit organizations represent the “Best of the Best” in their category as judged by our client base. Congratulations to each of these honorees! We encourage you to participate with these enterprises in support of our local community.

Yours truly,

Stephen J. Kipp

President & CEO
