Five Star Professional Honors Matt Teeple of Teeple Wealth Management with the 2015 Five Star Wealth Manager Award
Brownsburg, IN (PRWEB) September 03, 2015 -- Five Star Professional is pleased to announce Matt Teeple, Teeple Wealth Management, has been chosen as one of Indianapolis’ Five Star Wealth Managers for 2015.
“The research behind this award is extensive with each wealth manager being thoroughly vetted from numerous angles. We are proud to showcase these distinguished professionals,” says Jonathan Wesser, Research Director, Five Star Professional.
Five Star Professional partnered with Indianapolis Monthly to recognize a select group of Indianapolis-area wealth managers who provide quality services to their clients. Matt Teeple will be featured, along with other award winners, in a special section of the October issue.
“I would like to thank each of my clients for the opportunity to serve you. While the award is certainly special to me, being included in your lives and trusted as your advisor is what I value so much more,” says Matt Teeple of Teeple Wealth Management.
The Five Star Wealth Manager award program is the largest and most widely published award program in the financial services industry. The award is based on a rigorous, multifaceted research methodology, which incorporates input from peers and firm leaders along with client retention rates, industry experience and a thorough regulatory history review.
“Teeple Wealth Management is a unique and completely independent, 100- percent fee-only boutique advisory firm. We are unique in that we are committed to remaining small by capping the number of clients any one advisor works with so that our service to them is top-notch. While this may not be in our best financial interests, we are certain it's in the best interest of our clients! We also back this service claim up with a money-back guarantee on our fee. We know that many advisors out there have a primary objective to earn a commission and quickly move on to the next sale. We want no part in that. We're in it with our clients for the long term, and everything we do is centered on transparency, building relationships and adding value in the lives of our clients,” says Matt Teeple of Teeple Wealth Management.
