RidgeWorth Adds National Sales Manager for New Retail Channel Distribution

ATLANTA, Jan. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- RidgeWorth Investments announced today that it has hired Bob Kuberski to fill the newly-created role of National Sales Manager for the Retail Advisor channel.  Mr. Kuberski will build a team of five to seven wealth consultants who will primarily call on advisors affiliated with broker-dealers and registered investment advisors.

"Over the past decade, Bob has built a strong reputation among advisors as a partner who can add value to their businesses," said Jim Stueve, President of RidgeWorth Investments.  "I look forward to working with Bob again as we build RidgeWorth's first dedicated retail sales team.  Our strong investment solutions, marketed by Bob and his group, will enable RidgeWorth to deepen relationships in one of the industry's most important distribution channels."

"RidgeWorth has shown the ability to acquire significant assets from retail advisors in the absence of a team tailored to their needs," said Kuberski. "Given the opportunity to form a highly effective group of consultants, and our ability to communicate RidgeWorth's real value proposition directly to advisors, I am confident that we will see substantial growth in the retail channel in years to come." 

Kuberski is a graduate of the United States Naval Academy and has more than a decade of experience in the asset management industry.  Prior to joining RidgeWorth, he was a Regional Vice President with Invesco.  From 1995 – 2000, he played professional football for the Green Bay Packers and New England Patriots and worked for Morgan Stanley as a financial advisor in the off-season.  He resides in Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania.
