Newly combined practice group sought innovative, resourceful platform.
Tampa, FL (April 1, 2022) – Two experienced financial advisors have combined their financial practice capabilities and took a leap ahead today when they joined Signature Financial Solutions, ranked as one of the largest Tampa Bay-area financial advisory firms.
Kevin Cool, a 21-year financial services veteran, formerly with John Hancock and AIG in the Tampa Bay area, has helped numerous advisors design investment and insurance strategies to fit a wide range of unique needs. Kevin joins with Jim Grady, a former managing principal of the St. Petersburg office of Lincoln Financial Advisors and himself a 34-year financial services veteran.

The new team brings their 55-years of combined experience to Signature Financial Solutions, which itself has a corporate lineage dating back to the 1930s.
“Jim and I have ample experience and a desire to grow our combined practice. What we lacked was a firm that could provide the hands-on support for our day-to-day activities that also had the resources required to empower our practice with the resources a digital platform requires today. That’s a high bar to meet. We needed a paperless new business processing platform to help us grow efficiently, robust data security systems to help protect our clients and our practice, 24/7 client account access, support for the numerous apps required to be digital-capable, and a turnkey peer support community because while we wanted our independence we appreciate how peers can help you identify and solve common problems more quickly than when you’re operating alone. After a thorough search we found everything on that list with Signature Financial Solutions and their affiliation with one of the largest financial networks in the US”, Cool explained.
