Bellevue, Wash. (October 25, 2007) – Guidant Financial Group, a leading provider of self-directed IRA and business-funding services, was named by the Puget Sound Business Journal as the 6th fastest- growing private company in Washington State.
The weekly publication’s current issue includes a list of the 100 fastest-growing companies in the state, a list it has compiled since 1995. On October 18, representatives of all 100 companies attended a banquet at Qwest Field where the rankings were announced.
“We have enjoyed tremendous growth over the last three years by helping investors and entrepreneurs through personalized and customized service,” says Guidant’s President and CEO David Nilssen. “Our growth speaks to the quality of our employees who carry out Guidant’s vision every day and are responsible for the impact Guidant has made on the retirement account industry.”
Guidant’s services have been receiving increased attention over the last few months. Due to recent fluctuations in the stock market and housing markets, investors have been motivated to look for ways to personally direct their retirement funds into more secure and potentially lucrative investments. High-interest rates have also enticed entrepreneurs to look to their retirement accounts as an alternative means of financing a business or franchise purchase.
Winners of the Fastest Growing Company Awards were chosen based on their level of growth over the last three years, namely the percentage of revenue growth.
Guidant Financial Group provides investors with safe and innovative options to invest for their retirement futures. Guidant is the premier provider of self-directed IRAs and business funding solutions through an individual’s IRAs and 401(k)s.
