Todd Cipperman brings with him over 30 years of industry expertise leading and growing companies

BERWYN, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Great Valley Advisor Group (“GVA”), a Pennsylvania-based registered investment advisor, announced the promotion of Todd Cipperman to Chief Growth Officer. The move from his role as General Counsel highlights the firm’s focus on growth as it continues to support independent financial advisors in scaling their business through tailored solutions.

In his role as Chief Growth Officer, Cipperman will oversee the firm’s short and long-term growth strategies, leveraging his expertise to uncover target markets, client segments, as well as M&A and partnership opportunities.
