David W Barnett Founds Grand Arbor Advisors
- Posted by DWB on 03.30.2009
The Offices of David W Barnett is pleased to announce that, as of the beginning of 2009, Mr. Barnett has founded Grand Arbor Advisors, and independent registered investment advisory firm in the state of Texas. Barnett created the firm upon his departure from Signal Securities, Inc. of Fort Worth, where he served as an investment advisor representative until December 2008.
"We're very excited about the possibilities going independent holds for our practice and our clients," said Barnett. "My affiliation with Signal Securities was good, but 2008 changed a lot of thing as to how we looked at our business. I believe we'll have more flexibility in our practice to offer individualized solutions to our clients with a truly independent business model. Grand Arbor Advisors is strictly a fee-only financial planning and investment advisory firm. We think the fee-only structure is better suited for the way we manage our client assets."
