Boardroom

John Bodolay, CFP, CIMA

Senior Vice President–Investments

I have more than 30 years of experience in the financial services industry. Prior to joining the firm in 1994, I was a financial consultant with the Chicago office of Smith Barney. As a UBS Financial Advisor, I regularly consult with my clients that include associations, corporations, municipalities, high-net worth individuals, foundations and endowments, enabling them to appropriately position their investment portfolios. I believe that diversification and asset allocation aligned to a client's profile, time horizon and risk tolerance are critical to investment success.

As a graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a B.B.A. in finance, I hold licenses in Series 3, 7, 8, 63 and 65, as well as life and health insurance. I have also earned the Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®), Certified Investment Manager AnalystSM (CIMA®), and Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF) designations. A past member of the NASD Board of Arbitrators, I am active in the Investment Management Consultants Association (IMCA) and the Financial Planning Association® (FPA).
