Doug Ralston - President, CEO
Doug followed a circuitous route to Wall Street. After spending his early
twenties as an academic, he rose up into the world of finance as a trader at
Goldman Sachs. Eventually, Doug met Tom Shearman. They started SR with
the goal of establishing a new kind of brokerage firm. Over time and through
great care and effort, the firm became Doug's own. Hearkening back to his
days as a professor, Doug always enjoys talking to customers about market
history, current trends, and investment strategy....though he tries not to
lecture too much. In addition to supervising the firm's activities, Doug
enjoys world history, listening to classical jazz, and watching
movies with his kids and grandkids. (BrokerCheck)
