Local financial adviser to attend Edward Jones recognition conference

Jackson-based Edward Jones financial adviser Cheryl Mothes has qualified for the financial services firm's Pinnacle recognition conference, which celebrates the achievements of its top financial advisers.

Only 250 advisers will be recognized out of the company's 19,000. They were judged on their branch's success and client feedback.

The event will be held Tuesday, April 23, to Friday, April 26, in Orlando, Florida.

"I'm incredibly honored to be attending the firm's Pinnacle conference, and I anticipate great things from the learning and networking opportunity it offers," Mothes said in a news release. "There's nothing like connecting one on one with some of the most talented people at Edward Jones who bring their experiences and best practices from all across North America. I'll be looking for new ideas that I can carry back to my team and our clients."

A similar conference for the Pinnacle branches' support teams will be held in September. Mothes will attend alongside registered branch associate Tracy Hillman.

Edward Jones serves more than 8 million clients across the U.S. and Canada, and has $1.9 trillion in client assets as of December.
