Gary Gygi  has lived in Utah for most of his life and worked in the financial services arena for more than 21 years.  You may have heard him on KSL news radio and TV for many years being interviewed about business and market topics. 21 years managing money, 15 years with Morgan Stanley as financial advisor and branch manager, left in 2003 as First VP of Investments. Currently registered rep with WBB Securities and President of Gygi Capital Management, a Utah Registered Investment Advisory Firm  specializing in retirement planning including setting up, managing and dismantling retirement plan programs like 401ks.  Mr. Gygi  is an investment advisor experienced  in risk management and portfolio optimization.  He understands how to invest in all market conditions, not just those that go up.  He believes in minimizing losses by measuring risk as loss of principal and not simply as a “downside” to investing in the market.  He utilizes all tools and strategies available to carefully allocate investment portfolios in order to take advantage of all economic and market conditions that may arise in any given market cycle.  Perhaps most importantly, unlike most brokers who are just salesman who can sometimes adequately help grow one’s investment accounts during their lifetime, but are completely at a loss as to how to distribute the assets during one’s retirement, Gary specializes in doing just that, helping people grow their nest eggs and then appropriately help distribute it correctly.
