Two East Coast Fee-Only Financial Planning Firms Join Forces: SAGE Advisory Group and BroadView Financial Planning

Two independent East Coast financial advisory firms are demonstrating how to optimize their varied experiences and shared values by merging their firms into one to better serve their clients. Effective January 1, 2014, SAGE Advisory Group, LLC of Morristown, NJ and BroadView Financial Planning of Farmington, CT are SageBroadview Financial Planning, LLC, a lasting financial planning firm for serving generations of families for a lifetime … and beyond.

Co-principals of the new firm are Sheri Iannetta Cupo, CFP®, who was founding principal for SAGE; and Larry Annello, CPA/PFS, CFP®, who was managing director for BroadView.  Annello also remains a partner at the accounting firm of Del Conte, Hyde, Annello & Schuch, P.C. (DHAS). The pair met at a 2004 financial planning conference, where they found rich ground for collaboration. Shortly after, they began sharing select services and staff as a way to cost-effectively strengthen client care at both firms.

Annello comments, “After ‘dating’ for nearly a decade, we decided it was a good time to officially ‘get married,’ building on our strong, existing relationship.” Cupo adds, “As we come together in a spirit of respect, camaraderie and thoughtful collaboration, the possibilities seem endless – for us, our staff and, most importantly, our clients.”
