“We are extremely proud that Matt has been recognized to this prestigious list," said Daniel Shiu, Branch Manager of the Honolulu office at UBS Wealth Management USA. "Matt has achieved an incredible level of success as an advisor through his dedication, focus, and commitment to his clients, family, and community.”
Matt has been with UBS since 2009, building a successful business focused on high-net-worth entrepreneurs and executives in the technology sector. He has achieved the Certified Investment Management Analyst designation through The Wharton School at University of Pennsylvania, and the Certified Financial Planner certification, to provide full-service support for his clients.
