David Hanson

Dave Hanson joined Benjamin F. Edwards & Co. in 2010 to help open and manage the firm’s Wheaton, IL., office, its first location in the Chicago-area. While serving his clients and helping them with their investment needs are his top priorities, Dave has managed to boost the size of the office – including doubling the number of advisors.

His success growing his Wheaton location led to his selection as the firm’s Chicagoland regional manager. In that capacity, Dave oversees branch development in the greater Chicago metro area and supervises the firm’s Chicagoland locations. He has 30 years of investment experience, primarily at A.G. Edwards (now Wells Fargo), and earned his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification in 1982. He is a graduate of Augustana College (Rock Island, IL.) with a degree in business and accounting.

He is married with three children, and enjoys fishing, gardening, traveling, and camping. He is also active in his church and his community, and served as a board consultant for Missionary Sisters Health Care Systems and other non-profit organizations.
