The ThinkAdvisor Luminaries Awards shine a spotlight on “individuals and firms that are taking the most creative and boldest steps to push the industry and clients’ best interests forward, while having the biggest impact.” We are proud to announce that out of hundreds of nominees, Arnerich Massena Co-CEOs Reegan Rae, CPWA®, and Bryan Shipley, CFA, CAIA, have been named finalists in the ThinkAdvisor Luminaries Class of 2022. Both have been named finalists in the Executive Leadership category, and Reegan has been named a finalist in the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion category.

“As a Co-CEO team taking the reins with a 30-year firm history, Reegan and Bryan have set the stage for the next 30 years,” says Chief Operating Officer Shelly Kapoor. “They did an amazing job of navigating the firm through the pandemic, a physical move, and a reorganization, streamlining operations and fine-tuning our service model to best serve our clients.” Principal and Chief Compliance Officer Karl Hausafus, JD, notes, “Reegan and Bryan have made remarkable efforts to elevate the firm; we are very excited to see them achieve this well-deserved recognition for their leadership.”

Bryan Shipley remarks of his Co-CEO’s work in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, “Reegan is committed to continuing Arnerich Massena’s long-standing encouragement and support of elevating diversity in the financial services industry. As a rare female CEO in the investment industry, she is focused on fostering awareness of the lack of women and minority populations in the industry, pushing for greater inclusion and diversity.”

Final award winners will be announced in November at a gala ceremony in New York City. To see the full list of Luminaries Class of 2022 finalists, visit https://event.thinkadvisor.com/luminaries-awards/class-2022
