Troy Forman, MBA, Branch Manager, Financial Advisor, and Investment Management Consultant at Forman Investment Services, recently earned the prestigious Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA®) credential. This achievement follows his completion of an intensive executive MBA-style program offered by the Exit Planning Institute® (EPI).
Forman joins an elite group of business advisors who have received this specialized credential. The CEPA program is globally recognized as the gold standard for financial, M&A, and business advisors who help owners of privately held companies accelerate growth, protect their legacy, and align personal and financial goals for a successful transition.
“Business owners face unique challenges when trying to grow and eventually transition their companies,” said Troy Forman. “Earning the CEPA designation allows me to use the Value Acceleration Methodology™ to help our clients build lasting enterprise value, mitigate taxes, and ensure a seamless strategy for their personal and business futures.”
The CEPA credential equips advisors to guide business owners through critical exit options, personal financial planning, and value enhancement. Forman will integrate this advanced skillset into his existing practice at Forman Investment Services, which operates as an independent practice.
