Our Team
MARK BANISZEWSKI
Mark is an Executive Director of Investments with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. in Birmingham, Michigan. He has been with the company since 1995. He partners with Caitlin Falenski as a member of the Baniszewski Falenski Group.
Many of the families that work with the Group have spent years saving and accumulating assets for retirement. Once retired, they must use these funds to provide lifetime income. Transitioning from accumulation to the distribution of investments requires a change in mindset. This can be a challenging and anxious time as they navigate new roles, routines, and expectations.
Addressing these concerns, Mark combines experience and his ability to relate with hard-working individuals in building a relationship founded on trust, service, and confidence. This approach enables Mark to create a customized, yet flexible, financial strategy designed to meet the specific and ever-changing needs for each of the Group's clientele.
Communicating effectively with clients so they can understand and be comfortable with the investment process is essential. Mark strives to make complicated financial concepts tangible and comprehendible.
A graduate from Wayne State University with a Master's Degree in Finance and a Bachelor's in English, Mark holds the FINRA General Securities Representative License (Series 7), as well as the Uniform Securities Agent Law Examination (Series 63) and the Uniform Investment Adviser Law Examination (Series 65). In addition, he is a licensed health and life insurance agent in the state of Michigan.
Mark resides in Beverly Hills with his wife and two daughters. With both girls in college, he is fond of taking road trips to see them. Summers provide opportunities for gardening, bike rides, and family outings. When his schedule permits, he enjoys hiking, travel, reading, and playing basketball.
