About Brad. . . . . .

Hi, I’m Brad Harkness. I’m an Investment Advisor at Greenbush Financial Group

I was born and raised in the Capital Region and have been in the financial services industry for over 15 years now. During that time, I have worked in client services, trading, private equity and financial planning. I joined the GFG team in late 2023 after working several years for a large financial services firm in the capital region. I enjoy working in the financial services industry because I truly enjoy helping people. Something else that I enjoy about this industry, is that things change on a regular basis, which means you are constantly learning new things. I am currently working towards obtaining the CFP designation.

My Hobbies

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, spending time outdoors and volunteering within the community. I am a sports fan, especially motorsports and baseball. I enjoy watching NASCAR and Formula One races and New York Mets games. I am a Past Exalted Ruler and member of the Board of Trustees of my local Elks lodge and enjoy volunteering within the community and helping out where I can.

 
Rob and Brad were very knowledgeable about financial management for my husband and I. They were also very courteous and dedicated their time to helping us. We truly appreciate the assistance.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Michael Ruger, and later with a follow up question Brad Harkness, were immeasurably generous and helpful with their time and advice. I had a question about joint beneficiaries of an inherited IRA that I could not find an answer to anywhere. I had contacted both law firms and accounting firms locally and across the country that advertised on the internet that they were experts in estate taxation and was told that they did not do what I was asking about or they did not return my calls or emails. Eventually, I found Mr. Ruger’s videos and in them he got very close to what I was inquiring about but not completely. So I called Greenbush Financial Group and was able to speak in person with Mr. Ruger. He was very personable and helpful and seemed to take an actual interest in helping me. The next day I called the financial company that had the IRA with and was told something that sounded odd. I again called Greenbush Financial and asked to speak with Mr. Ruger, but he was out of the office and a very nice gentleman (Brad Harkness) said maybe he could help me. So, I told him the situation, and he too thought that what I was told seemed strange and he said that he would research the matter and get back with me the next day. He called me back the next day and told me the conclusion he had come to. Both of these gentlemen were very helpful, friendly, insightful and knowledgeable. They obviously have a wonderful company culture at Greenbush Financial. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
