Peter Bruno, Founder & CEO

Peter Bruno currently serves in the capacity of Chairman Emeritus having the confidence of handing over the gauntlet as well as having the confidence in delegating its day-to-day Concierge research statistical analysis to his daughter Dr. Ellen Ramsey and his Granddaughter Megan Ramsey. Peter Bruno began his career in the securities industry more than 55 years ago with the national investment firm of Loeb Rhoades & Co. In the last five years with Loeb, Peter was its Training Director. In 1972 he left this firm to establish a training school, providing private licensing seminars throughout the country.

Peter founded the Institute of Wall Street Studies as an outgrowth of this successful securities licensing training school and beginning in 1978, the school staff conducted a series of public information seminars on how the investment market works. Because these seminars were usually filled to capacity, it became apparent that investors wanted the information with which to wield more direct influence over the management of their investment portfolios. It also became obvious that the public wanted a clear alternative to the traditional client/broker relationship.
