Our Story
Canty Financial Management was founded in the late 1980s by Bill Canty, a CPA specializing in tax preparation and planning while working at the New York State Office of the Comptroller. Bill recognized that investment decisions should go hand in hand with tax planning, leading him to expand the firm’s services to include investment management in the mid-1990s. As the firm expanded, Bill attained his Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designation and brought on additional staff to support the growth. In the mid-2010s, his two sons joined the business as financial planners, eventually becoming partners and investing in the firm to ensure its legacy and continued success. Over the decades, Canty Financial has thrived by valuing the importance of long-term client relationships and offering personalized, transparent advice tailored to each client’s needs.
