Edward Jones-Financial Advisor: Garrett Akins

Edward Jones-Financial Advisor: Garrett Akins I help individual investors and business leaders achieve financial goals through personalized strategies. before moving to Waverly.

As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional, I believe it's important to invest my time understanding what you're working toward before you invest your money. Working closely with you, I can help you determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family. It's also important to understand the level of risk you're comfortable accepting when investing, so we can balance it with

the steps necessary to help reach your long-term goals. Whether you're planning for retirement, a business in need of an employee plan, saving for college or trying to protect the financial future of those you love, we can work together to develop specific strategies designed to help you achieve your goals. We can also monitor your progress to help make sure you stay on track. I graduated from Coe College with degrees in business administration and public relations, and later graduated with honors from Oklahoma City University with a Master's of Business Administration degree. I am married to my wife, DeAnn, and have two daughters, Pearl and Margaret. Originally from Baxter, IA, I spent 13 years living in various places around the U.S. I enjoy traveling, sports, live music and reading. Active in our church and in the community, I am a member of Waverly Kiwanis Club, the Waverly Chamber of Commerce, and sit on the Investment Committee for the Community Foundation of Northeast Iowa. Our branch team has over 18 years of combined experience and we are dedicated to providing you with the highest level of service possible, but we're also not alone. Thousands of people and advanced technology support our office so that we can help ensure you receive the most current and comprehensive guidance. In addition, we welcome the opportunity to work with your attorney, accountant and other trusted professionals to deliver a comprehensive strategy that leverages everyone's expertise. Working together, we can help you develop a complete, tailored strategy to help you achieve your financial goals.
