Virtual experience provided an opportunity for women advisors and field members to connect, build community, learn and grow their practices

Ameriprise Financial (NYSE: AMP) recently hosted its 4th annual Women Advisor Summit, gathering women advisors, field leaders and staff in recognition and celebration of their work on behalf of clients and to support their success through informative content and collaborative sessions.

The two-day summit, held April 29-30, included engaging presentations from Ameriprise executives, compelling panel discussions featuring top women advisors, and insightful market and regulatory updates from the firm’s expert thought leaders. Speakers shared their perspectives on topics including driving practice growth and helping clients navigate the external landscape. Ameriprise hosts Women Advisor Summits annually as part of its vision and commitment to be the firm of choice for women in financial services.

“At Ameriprise, we strive to be the best firm – and the best partner – for all advisors to succeed,” said Bill Williams, Executive Vice President of the Ameriprise Independent Advisors, which co-hosted the event with the firm’s Women’s Empowerment (WE) Network, a large and thriving network of women field members at Ameriprise. “In carrying out this unwavering commitment, we continuously invest in and support the growth of our advisors, and the summit is one of the ways that we help women at the firm thrive. Through these efforts, we aim to recruit and retain talented women advisors, who are integral to helping us effectively serve the unique needs of our clients.”

“What sets Ameriprise apart is our personalized advice experience, which clients count on to achieve their financial goals,” said Deirdre McGraw, Executive Vice President of Marketing, Communications and Community Relations at Ameriprise. “The Women Advisor Summit provides a powerful platform to hear how our advisors are bringing this experience to life by delivering personalized, goals-based advice and exceptional service to clients using the firm’s capabilities and support. Their passion and commitment to clients is invigorating and inspiring.”
