Edward Jones Financial Advisor Wins Award for Outstanding Performance

Nathan Welsh of Edward Jones recently won the firm’s coveted Zeke McIntyre Pioneer Award, which recognizes new financial advisors who achieve high levels of success early in their careers with the financial services firm. Welsh was one of only 318 of the firm’s more than 15,000 financial advisors to receive the award. Welsh received the award at the Edward Jones Region 252 regional meeting in Lake Arrowhead, CA.

Jim Weddle, the firm’s managing partner, said the award is a strong indicator of a financial advisor’s future success.

“We recruit and hire our financial advisors from among the best, so we expect them to do well,” Weddle said. “But to achieve such success early in his career with Edward Jones is outstanding, and I commend Nathan for his performance and dedication.”

The award is named after Edward Jones legend Zeke McIntyre, who opened the firm’s first branch office in 1957 in Mexico, Mo.
