Board members share the belief that the sharing of ideas and best practices among leaders within the financial services marketing industry “raises the tide for all boats” and our work ultimately benefits financial services clients, customers and investors.
Specifically, the purpose of The Gramercy Institute Board of Advisors is to enlighten and advise the Gramercy Institute on current trends, directions, topics and observations on the shape (and future) of the financial services marketing industry.
The Board’s input helps to guide the Gramercy Institute in its formulation of themes and content for upcoming Gramercy Forums and points GI toward understanding new and emerging areas of interest to our industry.
Gramercy Institute expresses its deep gratitude to this group in its service to the Gramercy Institute organization and to its global financial services marketing community.
