2013/2/14 - Genworth Wealth Management Releases New Practice Management Book

Author Matt Matrisian, Genworth Wealth Management's Director of Practice Management, draws on his deep experience with financial advisors, and the expertise of predecessor firms AssetMark Investment Services, Inc. and Quantuvis Consulting, to create a roadmap for turning good businesses into better ones.

"I'm excited to share with advisors the practice management knowledge our team has garnered from years of experience," said Matrisian. "The financial services industry has undergone many changes in the last few years, evolving and adjusting to meet clients' demands.  Advisors need to understand best practices and key issues for addressing those demands. The insights in this book help them develop efficient, client-focused wealth management firms."

Gurinder S. Ahluwalia, CEO and President, Genworth Wealth Management, emphasized how the book fits into the firm's philosophy of helping advisors build great businesses. "At Genworth, we help advisors navigate their practices with confidence. Our purpose is helping them make positive differences in both their clients' lives and their own businesses. This book is a natural step in our commitment to advisors' success."

The Power of Practice Management is available for purchase through Amazon.com and at national booksellers.
