He also shares his syndicated Market Scoreboard Report with radio listeners everywhere.

Named one of the “Top 100 Business News Journalists of the 20th Century,” Mr. Insana is known for his high-profile interviews with world leaders such as President Bill Clinton and President George Bush, billionaire investors including Warren Buffett and George Soros, captains of industry like Bill Gates and Jack Welch, as well as top economists, analysts, and influencers.

Mr. Insana joins Dynasty as the firm prepares to host its annual Investors Forum for independent advisors in November 2023.

“Ron is a giant in the investment industry, both as an incisive reporter and a hands-on practitioner,” said Mr. Shea. “To say my team and I are looking forward to this collaboration is an understatement.”
