About Michael Babikian

My name is Michael Babikian and my focus is to help grow businesses by implementing ways for disruptive innovations to help further the goal of protecting families. I help bring insight to people that will empower them to not just accept the responsibility for their financial futures and securing their legacies, but also to be enthusiastic about the process. I have an extensive background in the life insurance industry, tax law, financial planning, estate planning and legacy planning. I speak and blog on the future of financial services, market innovations and strategies, and leadership development. In my previous roles, I have: • Developed customized solutions for a variety of insurance and investment needs.• Built the industry’s first sales-oriented advanced marketing team to support distributors and the life insurance needs of high-net-worth individuals.• Advised and guided clients through tax and business matters, including entity creation, mergers and acquisitions, and exit strategies. I am passionate about helping bring clarity to the complex issues that are constantly changing the future of personal financial security and business success. The old systems and old patterns don’t work anymore. I am committed to using my experience and expertise to help individuals, families and businesses prepare and protect their futures. Let’s connect and engage in meaningful ways.Leadership | Strategic | Planning | Business Development | Business Transformation | Financial Preparedness | Retirement | Tax Planning | Innovation | Family Financial Planning | Market Analysis | Legacy Planning
