Pinnacle Financial Partners is a full-service financial services firm with almost $5 billion in assets. Headquartered in Nashville, Pinnacle was founded in 2000. In 2007, Pinnacle launched a de novo expansion into Knoxville, another high growth Tennessee market. Today Pinnacle is the second-largest bank holding company headquartered in Tennessee, with 29 offices in eight Middle Tennessee counties and three in Knoxville.

In 2012 Forbes named Pinnacle one of “America’s Most Trustworthy Companies.” The magazine and GMI Ratings examined more than 8,000 companies traded on U.S. exchanges with market caps of $250 million or more to find the 100 most transparent and trustworthy. Pinnacle also received Greenwich Excellence Awards in 2010 and 2011 for the second consecutive year for overall satisfaction in middle market and small business banking.

Four overarching business strategies have guided Pinnacle since its inception.

Focus on businesses and consumers that desire a deep relationship with their financial partner – not simply the lowest cost. When we started the firm, we set out to be “more than a bank.” To accomplish this, we had to be able to meet all the financial needs of a client – whether at home or at work or when managing their assets. Pinnacle clients experience the depth of products and services found in large national institutions while also having the strong personal relationship with their financial advisor found in community banks.

Provide distinctive service and effective advice. Every Pinnacle associate focuses every day on what it takes to deliver this brand promise. Our ultimate goal is to “wow” every client. This means going beyond what is expected, such as good service, and doing things that are always memorable. Our standard for wowing clients is to provide the unexpected answers and anticipate their unspoken needs. In our annual client survey, more than 97 percent rank us “recognizably better” than our competitors.

Hire and retain highly experienced and qualified financial services professionals. We believe we take care of our clients better than anyone else in the market primarily because we attract and keep the most talented and experienced financial professionals. We recruit and retain people with significant expertise, large client followings and a strong likelihood of thriving in the client-centered Pinnacle culture. These attributes give our clients confidence they will have continuity and long-term relationships with their partners at Pinnacle.

Offer a full line of financial services, including banking, investments, mortgage, trust, insurance, online banking and treasury management. Pinnacle’s comprehensive platform of services includes traditional depository and credit products, as well as sophisticated products such as treasury management that are typically found only at large regional institutions. Our wealth management associates are experts in financial planning, investment management, trust and insurance services.
