About John
John Bretti is a Wealth Advisor at J.P. Morgan Wealth Management.
John works closely with affluent families, business owners and successful individuals to help them grow and preserve their wealth so they may establish a meaningful legacy. He acts as their conduit to the fortress balance sheet and global capabilities of J.P. Morgan, one of the most well-respected banks in the world.
By bringing a customized approach to each relationship, John makes it clear that he is always on the client's side of the table. He listens carefully to understand what individuals hope to achieve across the many phases of their financial life.
John is particularly interested in advising ambitious clients in the asset accumulation phase, helping them to plot a long-term plan toward accomplishing their specific goals. He works hard to demystify wealth management so that all members of multi-generational families—both those nearing retirement and younger members—are financially confident and prepared for the responsibilities ahead.
Over a decade-plus career in wealth management, John has become intimately familiar with the opportunities and challenges faced by high-net-worth clients. Before his current role, he was a Financial Strategist at Equitable Advisors, offering investment approaches that addressed changing economic environments. Now at J.P. Morgan, he is pleased to share the firm's comprehensive platform, market perspective, talented resources, and award-winning research1 for the benefit of his clients.
John earned a B.S. in Finance & Real Estate from Syracuse University, where he graduated magna cum laude. He holds the Accredited Investment Fiduciary® designation.
Committed to giving back to the community, John has been recognized for his lifetime donations to the New York Blood Center. He also volunteers with Habitat for Humanity.
One of John's core priorities is to spend quality time with the people he values most. He and his wife, Maddy, reside in Ridgefield, Connecticut, with their baby boy, John Richard. They like to catch up on the weekends with family and lifelong friends. In the colder months, he enjoys the sun in Longboat Key, Florida.
