Michael T. Hoffman has joined BB&T Scott & Stringfellow as Senior Vice President, Financial Advisor and opened the firm’s first of two new offices in Savannah, Georgia. The expansion into the Savannah market is BB&T Scott & Stringfellow’s first Georgia venture into markets outside of metro-Atlanta, a clear indication of the firm’s confidence in the sustainability of the current economic growth of Coastal Georgia. The new BB&T Scott Stringfellow office is located on Johnson Square in downtown Savannah in the historic Manger Building at 7 East Congress Street, Suite 706.
 
“BB&T Scott & Stringfellow’s “client first” philosophy gives us the flexibility to build personal relationships with our clients and develop an investment plan that will align with each client’s unique goals. Also on my team at BB&T Scott & Stringfellow is my business associate, Kassidy Griner, Registered Client Service Associate. Kassidy has a stellar reputation for providing prompt and efficient customer service that is second to none,” said Michael Hoffman.
 
“One of the benefits of my new firm is accessibility to senior management professionals, which differentiates BB&T Scott & Stringfellow from other investment firms. Two of the four executives on the company’s advisory board are still working financial advisors and are also subject to the effects of their decisions,” noted Mr. Hoffman.
 
As a veteran financial advisor, Mr. Hoffman has 17 years of outstanding industry service. Before joining BB&T Scott & Stringfellow, Mr. Hoffman was First Vice President, Financial Advisor at SunTrust Investment Services.
