Barresi Financial adds division

    PRESQUE ISLE – Barresi Financial, Inc., an insurance, investments and employee benefits firm with locations in Presque Isle, Bangor and Scarborough, announces the development of a new division, Barresi Benefits Group.
    “We’ve been offering employee benefits and financial services for over 25 years. As investment regulations continue to become more stringent, our ability to be flexible in the other areas of our firm has become more difficult,” said Nathan Berry of Barresi Financial. “This, added to the fact that our employee benefits client base has grown significantly over time, led to the creation of Barresi Benefits Group.”
    The creation of the new division will not result in any changes to staffing or client service.
    “It will be business as usual with the exception of a new logo and some new marketing materials,” Berry said. “Our goal of being one of the premier employee benefits and financial services providers in Maine will remain unchanged.”
    Additionally, Barresi Financial has joined Benefit Advisors Network (BAN). BAN is a premier network of national credentialed independent benefit advisory and consulting companies. Each firm is individually recognized as a distinguished market leader. BAN promotes “best practices” sharing, technology and human capital investments, and shares expertise to support members in providing “best of class” service for their clients with the highest ethical standards.
    “Our growth throughout Maine has forced us to bring in additional value-added services, and BAN allows us access to products, services and expertise that we might not otherwise have had available,” said Berry. “We’ll be rolling out new services like compliance webinars, employee benefit Web site portals and more to our clients over the next few months.”
