Senior Vice President–Wealth Management
Private Wealth Advisor
About Susan 'Sue' Bordash
Susan began her career at the original Morgan Stanley in 1979, during an era when women joining and surviving brokerage firms was an exceptional feat. Beating the odds, Susan thrived in the male-dominated environment because of her analytical mind and persistence. With her natural relationship management skills, she quickly honed her craft by learning directly from some of the best minds in the industry.
Forged from the fire of Wall Street, Susan’s understanding of the industry and her high-touch, detail-oriented style attracted sophisticated financial services professionals as her top clients. Today, as a UBS Private Wealth Advisor and founder of Bordash Group, Susan advises long-term relationships of ultra high net worth investors and families. She was recently recognized by Forbes magazine as one of its Top Women Wealth Advisors for 2022, 2024, 2025, 2026. The Forbes rating is compiled by Shook Research and awarded annually in February based on information from a 12 month period ending September of the prior year.
Susan and her team guide clients in every critical area of wealth management—investment management, financial planning, wealth accumulation and preservation, estate planning strategies and philanthropy. Busy with their businesses and lives, Susan’s clients appreciate the care and time Bordash Group takes to understand their priorities and goals. The team believes that truly caring about clients begins with transparency, accountability and building long-lasting relationships grounded in trust and collaboration.
