Corporate History
 
 

Walter Grenda founded Reliance Financial Group over 20 years ago after beginning his career as a stock broker with Dean Witter. As our Western New York industrial economy began to fade he was increasingly approached by family, friends and clients being forced into early retirement. Walter quickly realized that he had to look beyond the resources of his current employer to find the right answers to the complicated retirement planning issues he was being asked to address.

Walter turned to organizations such as AARP to gain the expertise he needed to help this rapidly growing group of clients. He created professional alliances with Attorneys, CPA’s and other professionals to help implement the comprehensive retirement plans that have benefited RFG clients and allowed them to retire with confidence.
 
One of RFG’s first challenges was creating a series of retirement seminars for the former New York Telephone Company when automation all but eliminated the live human voices that used to greet us when we dialed the operator. Walter traveled the state helping to ease these surprised employees into an early retirement that was creating a high amount of anxiety for them.
 
Since then RFG has been asked by many of WNY’s largest employers and labor unions to conduct similar workshops for their employees and members. Thousands have benefited from RFG retirement seminars presented at companies such Motorola, Westinghouse, Pratt & Lambert, Gibraltar Steel, and Delphi Automotive Group as well as many UAW locals. Walter also presents these easy to understand educational programs periodically to the public.         
RFG clients continue to benefit from this educational, comprehensive approach to retirement financial planning.
