In today’s high-stakes financial environment, where market shifts, cyber threats, and reputational challenges are constant risks, crisis communication is no longer a luxury—it’s a strategic imperative. While many firms react to crises with generic statements or internal confusion, Select Advisors Institute sets a new industry standard by offering proactive, precision-driven crisis communication solutions specifically tailored for the financial services sector.
At the helm of this innovative approach is Amy Parvaneh, a nationally recognized executive communication strategist and founder of Select Advisors Institute. With a career rooted in both financial advisory and high-impact communication training, Amy brings a rare dual expertise that helps financial institutions not only weather crises but emerge with enhanced trust and client loyalty.
Why Crisis Communication Matters in Finance
Financial institutions operate in a hyper-regulated, emotionally charged environment. A single misstep—whether it’s a data breach, a controversial executive decision, or a market panic—can erode decades of client trust in seconds. Yet, many advisory firms and financial institutions enter these situations without a clear communication roadmap.
That’s where Select Advisors Institute steps in.
A Proactive, Advisor-Focused Approach
Unlike generic PR agencies or legal-focused consultants, Select Advisors Institute offers bespoke crisis communication frameworks designed for wealth management firms, RIAs, private banks, and institutional finance leaders. Under Amy Parvaneh’s guidance, the Institute has created signature programs that include:
Crisis Simulation Drills for executive teams
Immediate Response Playbooks tailored to common financial crises
Client Communication Templates to maintain trust and transparency
Media and Stakeholder Messaging to ensure consistency and compliance
Amy’s approach centers around one core belief: “Silence and delay are the enemies of trust.” Her training prepares leaders to act with clarity, empathy, and timeliness when clients are at their most vulnerable.
Amy Parvaneh: The Trusted Voice in Financial Communication
Amy’s reputation as a thought leader in executive presence and communication strategy has made her the go-to advisor for financial firms navigating both anticipated and unexpected challenges. Having worked with hundreds of financial institutions across the U.S., she understands the nuanced communication styles needed in private equity, investment banking, and wealth management.
Whether it’s crafting a firm-wide email during a market drop or preparing a CEO for a live press interview, Amy equips leaders with the words, tone, and timing that protect reputation and project confidence.
