Founder / Managing Director

Meet Rick Shrier.

Rick Shrier founded Shrier Associates LLC in 1986, guided by a philosophy that continues to define his practice: work with clients to make money together, not from them. His career in financial services began in 1980, and he brings more than 45 years of experience to every client relationship.

A personal, fiduciary approach

Through Shrier Associates’ work as a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), Rick serves clients under a fiduciary standard, putting their interests first. He helps individuals and families preserve and grow assets, increase income, identify opportunities to reduce tax liability, and develop low-cost investment strategies aligned with their lifetime goals.

His approach is personal, deliberate, and built on trust. The focus is not simply reaching a financial milestone, but helping clients plan for money that can support them throughout their lives and leave a legacy beyond.

Education and credentials

Rick holds an AB in Economics from Connecticut College. He earned the Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) and Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) designations from The American College in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. He is also a Licensed Life Insurance Advisor.

Community and family

Rick has served as President and Board Member of Congregation B’nai Shalom of Westborough, Massachusetts; as a member of the Investment Committee and Board of Trustees of the Union for Reform Judaism; and as a Trustee of the Reform Pension Board.

Rick is married to Yonok and is the proud father of three children and grandfather of three. He divides his time between Clinton, Massachusetts, and Asheville, North Carolina, maintaining a home and office in each location.

An avid pickleball player, Rick competes in local and national tournaments. He brings the same drive, discipline, and focus to his work as he does to the court.

If you are looking for an experienced, fee-conscious advisor who is genuinely invested in your success, Rick would welcome a conversation.
