The awards will be presented to the top-10 branch managers for their outstanding achievements. These individuals will be honored at the second annual awards dinner in New York City and the official results will be posted online. The program, sponsored by Mainstay Investments, pays tribute to branch managers for their achievements in creating effective branch-wide marketing strategies; recruiting, developing and retaining talented advisors; and providing superior client service.
