July 28, 2020

  Brown and Company has been in the news several times recently. We are grateful for the opportunities to speak with journalists to help educate readers on timely financial topics. Here are the most recent media interviews we have done:   Mark Brown was quoted in a column by Morey Stettner at Investor’s Business Daily on July 17, 2020. The article is titled, “As Clients Age, They May Face Heirs Who Seek a Larger Inheritance.” Mark talked about the importance of communication between family members when it comes to estate planning and how an unequally distributed estate plan can cause problems and hurt. (To read more about our thoughts on this topic, check out this article titled, “5 Things to Think About Before Meeting With Your Estate Attorney.”)   Chad Hamilton was quoted in two different articles in June by CNBC reporter, Alizah Salario. The first was about the different risk factors you need to consider when investing. Chad explained the need to be aware of various types of risk such as market risk, default risk, interest rate risk, and concentration risk. You can read the article here. The second article pertained to U.S. Savings Bonds and what you need to know about them – including how to determine their value and whether to cash them in.  Here is a link to that article.   Chad Hamilton was also quoted in the personal finance section of Time Magazine in May 2020.  Kevin Kelleher interviewed Chad about income tax planning considerations pertaining to the stimulus payments and other timely strategies pertaining to the COVID-19 environment.  Go here to read the article.
