Wisdom Planning & History

It's no secret that markets move in cycles, historically in tandem with the ups and downs of the global economy and industries behind them. Lean years often follow boom years and market bubbles. Recessions give way to periods of growth, stability, and investment. We've been through our share of bull and bear markets over the past 125 years, and we will leverage that experience to assist you in navigating the complex world of investments.

History

Tracing its roots to 1879, Wachovia Securities, LLC, grew over the years through mergers with some of the industry’s most respected regional and national firms, including the 2007 acquisition of A.G. Edwards, Inc., by Wachovia Corporation. Throughout their histories, Wells Fargo Advisors’ predecessors were known for exceptional service based on trust and knowledge and for corporate cultures that put clients’ needs above all else.
