The foundation of Cornerstone lies in the history of her founder, John Riley. As a new broker working for Dean Witter Reynolds in the mid 80’s, John realized the value of conservative investment strategies when he saw investors and brokers, who were not prepared, get surprised by the devastating Crash of 1987. Seeing these events unfold first-hand lead John to focus on conservative and disciplined strategies to grow his clients’ assets.

Knowing clearly that he wanted to be involved in the “investment world” Michael started his career in London as a runner on the London Stock Exchange. He quickly advanced and was promoted through the ranks to Institutional Trader, where he built a thriving Institutional business around sound investment advice and exceptional service and support that benefited his clientele.
