CHICAGO, Dec. 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Brookstone Capital Management ("Brookstone"), a leading SEC-registered investment advisory (RIA) firm providing fee-based asset management services, announces Darryl Ronconi as the company's new president. Ronconi will retain his chief operating officer (COO) position and expand his role in managing the company's day-to-day operations while strategically working alongside Brookstone founder and CEO, Dean Zayed, on fast-paced growth initiatives for the firm. Ronconi joined Brookstone in 2015 as the chief operating officer.  

"Darryl has worked closely with me since joining Brookstone," said Zayed. "He has an impressive track record within the industry and has delivered great results to the Brookstone team thus far. With him as our president, I am excited for the start of this next chapter as we are positioned to grow significantly in both advisor resources and overall AUM. There is no better person than Darryl to help lead these initiatives."

He participated in all facets of the business, including the senior leadership team, board of directors, and a voting member on the RIA investment committees and B-D product approval committee. During his time there, Ronconi played an integral role in helping grow the company from 300 advisors with $2 billion in assets under management (AUM) to 2,200 advisors with $16 billion in AUM.  Prior to, Ronconi founded and ran a technology consulting firm that served clients predominately within the financial services industry.
