Cheryl Holland named to Wealth Manager Magazine’s list of “The Top Fifty Women in Wealth Management”

COLUMBIA, SC – April 1, 2009 – Cheryl R. Holland, CFP® has been named for the second year in a row to Wealth Manager Magazine’s list of “The Top Fifty Women in Wealth Management” in the country.  The editors say “In a field where they make up barely 25% of practitioners, women in wealth management are changing the style and tone of the profession.  

Being named to the Top 50 in 2009 is not about who has the largest book of business or highest amount of assets under management. These women are the leaders, influencers and mentors in a profession where women excel, even if their numbers are a smaller percentage of the overall wealth management population. They teach, mentor and support each other; they nurture and empower their clients.”’

Ms. Holland is the founder and President of Abacus Planning Group, Inc.,   a fee-only financial planning and investment counsel firm managing over $450,000,000 for 155 clients.   Working with Abacus involves a series of sessions with various professionals on the Abacus team which generate thoughtful discussions and creative problem solving for a full spectrum of financial topics and personal goals. The insight gained from this process forms the basis of a customized financial and investment plan. 

Abacus is located at 3200 Devine Street, Suite 101 in Columbia, South Carolina and can be reached by phone at (803) 933- 0054 or via the website www.abacusplanninggroup.com.
