11-17-14

Paragon Bank has announced the formation of the Paragon Wealth Solutions division. The new division was created to assist customers with retirement and investment planning, as well as small business strategies. The group is comprised of six professionals with over 120 years of financial services and asset management experience.

“We pride ourselves on strategic growth while maintaining a focus on serving the needs of our customers,” said Robert Shaw, Chief Executive Officer at Paragon Bank. “With individuals and small business owners in mind, we look forward to enabling more people reach their investment and retirement goals.”

The Paragon Wealth Solutions team will be made up of four wealth advisors: Staci Jackson, Mark Winburne, Kent “Brooks” Monypeny and Charles Hardee.

·       Jackson, who joined the Paragon team in March 2014, has more than 15 years of investment management and financial services experience and recently opened the Memphis branch location of Atlantic Capital Advisors.

·       Winburne, who was appointed in July of this year, has worked as a financial advisor since 1993 and holds Series 7, 24, 63 and 65 financial licenses.

·       Monypeny has over three decades of experience and holds numerous securities licenses including Series 6, 7 and 52, among others.

·       Hardee has been in the securities industry for 20 years and holds a Series 7 license, as well as a state securities and insurance license.

Monypeny and Hardee joined the division on November 3, 2014. The team will be led by Dan Overbey, President and Managing Director, and sales support will be steered by Audrey Liles.

The group will focus on a wide range of strategic plans, including business investments, companywide retirement and individual retirement planning. Paragon Wealth Solutions has affiliated with LPL Financial to provide equities, mutual funds and bonds annuities for businesses and individuals.

This new division of Paragon Bank, combined with the bank’s Mortgage, Cash Management, Insurance, BusinessManager and Payroll Solutions, should provide for a significant increase in non-interest revenues for the company. By offering this suite of products, Paragon Bank is expanding beyond the traditional banking infrastructure to provide solutions to help make its customers’ lives simpler.
