Ariel Investments

Ariel Investments is a Chicago-based investment firm that was founded by John Rogers, Jr. in 1983. John was introduced to finance by his father at an early age and quickly fell in love with investments. Rogers received his degree in economics from Princeton and serves on the Board of Directors for a few Fortune 500 companies.

Ariel Investments has had a track record of out-performing the market in several of its funds by focusing on small and mid-cap U.S. firms. The company has over $13 billion in assets and over 100 employees, with 95% of the company being owned by those employees and board members. Before you look to invest your money in big "brand name" brokerages, check out Ariel Investments!

Essential Wealth Management

Essential Wealth Management is based out of Atlanta, GA and is owned by Melvin Coleman. Melvin is one of the most dedicated members of our community that I know! He currently serves as Executive Director of the Atlanta Black Chambers. In this role, he focuses on the growth and development of Black-owned businesses of all sizes.

One of the things that impresses me about Essential Wealth Management is that they don’t try to be everything to their clients. Melvin has a vision to be an integral part of his clients’ financial team rather than trying to be the only member of the team. His company focuses on growing the assets of his clients. If you are missing a wealth management firm on your team, contact Essential Wealth Management.
