Nick de Peyster

Chief Investment Officer

Nick de Peyster serves as a Managing Director and Chief Investment Officer of Genesis Wealth Advisors, LLC.  He brings nearly two decades of professional money management experience to our team. Nick’s investment management experience includes portfolios of up to two billion dollars for individuals, mutual funds, pension funds and insurance companies.  Nick specializes in institutional investment, and has managed portfolios for some of the top global financial firms, including Fortis, Morley, and State Street Global Advisors.

Using his knowledge of equities, fixed income, convertible securities, commodities, alternative strategies, derivatives, and various asset allocation techniques, Nick has been able to successfully guide portfolios through one of the greatest bull markets – and two of the worst bear markets – of the last 50 years.  His knowledge of complex estate planning strategies and expertise in sophisticated areas of corporate finance can guide you as you create the right mix of investments to help accomplish your individual and/or institutional goals.

Wealth management has become so complicated that building the right portfolio requires different experts in the required financial disciplines.  Nick recognizes this, and is pleased to participate as a member of the Genesis team, which comprises legal, tax, investment, insurance, business and management professionals.  He is devoted to working with others to develop sound solutions for client problems.

Nick earned his MBA, with distinction, from New York University’s Stern School of Business. He graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University.  He is a Chartered Financial Analyst, and has maintained his qualifications since 1992.  Nick lives in Wellesley, Massachusetts with his wife and three sons.  He enjoys actively participating in his community, and serves on the vestry of St. Mary’s Church in Newton Lower Falls.
