Importance of a trusted adviser
Hudson will serve on the Raymond James Wealth Management Operating Committee and says he is looking forward to working with the firm’s team of professionals.
"Raymond James has created a firm that embraces a culture where advisors and portfolio managers truly are able to do what is right for their clients, with no push to sell proprietary products," he said. "This focus is critical to me as, more than ever, investors and their families need a trusted advisor who will put clients' needs first, always. The Raymond James values-based culture helps make this happen."
