The family and the firm

Three Wangs, one office, three decades of practice.

Runnymede has always been a family business. That is not a marketing line — it is the operating model that explains why our clients hear back the same day.

1993. Samson Wang founds Runnymede in Berkeley Heights with a single conviction: investors are best served by an advisor who is paid by them, and only by them.

1998. Andrew joins, eventually launching the Inspired Money podcast.

2003. Chris joins, eventually taking the CIO seat.

Pauline has been with the firm from the start; David's quantitative work has shaped our portfolios for three decades.
