About Arthur
Arthur A. Pensato is a Managing Director and Wealth Partner at J.P. Morgan Wealth Management.
Arthur works closely with high-net-worth individuals and families, helping them pursue their financial goals more effectively through deeply customized wealth-management advice and offerings. He leads a close-knit team of professionals who work in concert to deliver a high-touch service model that strives to create a client experience that is notable for its responsiveness and coordination.
Drawing on his background in investment research and analysis, Arthur believes that clients value the depth of guidance he can provide. He takes the time to develop one-on-one relationships with each client or family, learning about their preferences and intentions so that he can embed that knowledge within his approach.
Each relationship, Arthur points out, begins with a financial plan that clarifies the location and scope of client assets, as well as each client's concerns, ambitions, and priorities. Clients look to Arthur and his team as reliable problem solvers who are eager to add value to clients' lives. "We listen, we inform, and we deliver," Arthur relays. Most important, Arthur believes, is the team's integrity and focus on client well-being—principles that inspire their ongoing efforts.
Arthur has worked in investing and wealth management since 1995. Prior to moving to J.P. Morgan, he spent 23 years with First Republic Bank, where he was a Senior Managing Director and Wealth Manager. Earlier in his tenure, Arthur was a Research Analyst who worked directly with the Chief Investment Officer at First Republic. His career also includes four years with Invesco, where he was a Performance Analyst. Arthur began his investment career at Neuberger Berman, where he focused on performance analytics and mutual fund accounting. He earned his B.S. in Accounting from St. John's University and has completed executive education through The Wharton School.
Arthur lives in Long Island with his wife, Teresa, and their daughter and son. A car enthusiast, Arthur also enjoys cooking, dining, sampling new wine, and working on his golf game.
