CFP®

Matt Manies began working as an Advisor at Moneta in October 2019. Drawn to navigating clients through today’s complex financial landscape, Matt delivers personalized advice that is focused on each client’s unique financial situation and goals.

Matt earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Finance from the University of Missouri – St. Louis. Before joining Moneta, Matt worked as an Associate Wealth Advisor at Northwestern Mutual, where he learned the tenets of investment and risk management while always keeping a client’s best interest at the forefront. Prior to financial planning, he spent the first 13 years of his career as a market maker on the trading floors of Chicago, actively trading equity and fixed-income derivatives listed on all three Chicago exchanges. Ultimately, Matt’s previous experiences have culminated in the desire to work side by side with clients and help them define and achieve their goals.

Upon returning to their hometown of St. Louis, Matt and his wife planted roots in Kirkwood and have two boys who keep them on the move. In between sports and school activities, Matt enjoys staying active, traveling, hiking, and hitting the batting cages with his sons.
