NEW YORK--Advisors4Advisors (A4A), a practice management website and online community for independent financial advisors, today announced that Kristen Jankowski, founder of Financial Planning Outsource Services, has joined its team of industry expert bloggers. Jankowski, who is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and holds an MBA in Finance from Fairleigh Dickinson University, is sharing her expertise in financial planning topics with the site's more than 2,500 users. Some of her initial posts cover Roth IRA conversion, grantor retained annuity trusts (GRATS), the effect of healthcare reform on retirees, the impact of the financial crisis on prepaid tuition plans, when to consider a reverse mortgage, and how to accurately account for pension income in financial plans.
"Kristen is knowledgeable in all facets of financial planning," said A4A founder Andrew Gluck. "Last year alone, she created more than 100 financial plans, and she has come across just about any planning issue an advisor can face. She's blogging about complex planning topics and offering clear and direct solutions to members of A4A."
Jankowski, who also holds a BS in Economics from Ithaca College, worked for a number of advisory firms before starting her own company. Now, as a specialist in creating financial plans for other advisors, she helps them free time to spend on investment management or expanding their practices.
"I realized early on that what I enjoyed most as an advisor was creating comprehensive financial plans," said Jankowski. "By working exclusively on financial planning, I've learned the best ways to address many difficult scenarios. I look forward to sharing my experience with other advisors on Advisors4Advisors."
