Corporate Objective
When our Company was founded in 1982, our objective was to offer investment services available at the large firms or wire houses with the personal touch and accountability of an independent firm. While many investment firms have since merged into financial conglomerates or simply disappeared altogether, we have stayed true to our principles. We strive to develop long-term relationships based on mutual trust and prompt attention to client needs.
Resources
Painter, Smith, & Gorian, Inc. maintains a competent, knowledgeable staff of professionals. Our firm puts its greatest emphasis upon integrity and always places the interests of its clients first.
We are affiliated with an information network which gives our clients instant access to the best research organizations in the United States. From this vast resource we are able to choose those vehicles which are most likely to satisfy the investment criteria of each of our accounts. Because we are both a broker dealer and a Registered Investment Advisor, our clients can choose a transaction-based or fee-based program, depending on what best fits their needs and objectives. We are able to utilize the services of over 300 independent investment managers.
We have access to an extensive inventory of new issue and secondary corporate and agency bonds, along with an equally extensive tax free municipal bond inventory.
