KIPP FRANKLIN STONE

An expert in marketable securities, Kipp Franklin Stone, CFA, CFP, became involved in her profession because in the second grade, she wanted to do better than her father in investments and she was more of an expert on the subject than most people. She began her professional career as a freelance journalist with various Michigan and Ohio based newspapers from 1968 to 1971 while also serving as a public relations representative at Bayerische Motoren Werke (BMW) in Munich from 1969 to 1971.

Following this, Ms. Stone was the trust portfolio manager and vice president of PNC Bank in Philadelphia from 1984 to 1991, and held a private practice in Delaware and Pennsylvania for two years.

Continuing on her professional path, Ms. Stone was treasurer, corporate secretary and director of Flavour of Britain Co. from 1994 to 1999 and investment manager of Vanguard Valley Forge from 2001 to 2003.

Additionally, Ms. Stone was a partner of Britannia.com from 1996 to 1999.

Prior to the start of her career, Ms. Stone pursued a formal education at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where she attained a Bachelor of Business Administration in 1967. She is also a certified Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Certified Financial Planner (CFP). Active in her local community, Ms. Stone served on the board of directors, the executive committee and as treasurer for the Children’s Country Week Association in Chester County, Pennsylvania, from 1988 to 2003.

Outside of her primary trade, Ms. Stone served the Delaware Valley Certified Financial Planners on the board of directors from 1991 to 1993 and as secretary from 1993 to 1996.

In her free time, Ms. Stone enjoys horseback riding, needlecrafts, swimming and studying politics, and was named a co-holder of the world’s long distance motorcycling record in 1971. She likes to think that there are many great clients who were more secure, happier, and able to pass that mindset onto their children and grandchildren as a result of her work.
