About CSG Financial

CSG Financial stands apart through a commitment to personalized guidance, tailored to each individual & their unique circumstances.

Our dedication to integrity, transparency, and client-centricity ensures that your interests remain at the forefront of every recommendation we make.

Our Story

We all began our careers at one of the largest wealth management firms in the state of Delaware.

Through our dedication to our clients’ best interests, we gradually uncovered the realities of our industry: standardized financial-plans lacking flexibility, high fees, limited access to advisors, and complex products.

It was these recurrent, yet preventable, shortcomings throughout the industry that spurred the inception of CSG Financial. We prioritize a planning-first approach, ensuring our clients’ best interests are the sole consideration when giving financial advice.

We operate on a no-commission basis, with a transparent compensation structure, and consistently adhere to a fiduciary standard in every facet of our operations.

CSG Financial is based in Dover, Delaware, serving clients locally and across the country through virtual meetings and our collaborative platform.

Shane has been nothing but helpful since day one tailoring my individual financial planning. He’s trustworthy, reliable, and always willing to roll up his sleeves to get the job done. Shane and his counterparts are building a great platform here and I owe them much credit for helping me consolidate and organize my finances.

Shane is awesome. He is very easy to talk to and super knowledgeable. He is professional and makes you feel comfortable with the information provided before moving forward with anything. He takes the time to understand where you’re at and where you’d like to be. We have had great success in working with him so far, and we would highly recommend him to family and friends.

My experience with CSG has been truly exceptional. Working with their team throughout my financial journey has been a great experience. Steve and Zack have always been quick to respond and willing to help resolve any issues or concerns I’ve had along the way.Zack, in particular, has taken the time to attend multiple meetings with me, helping me navigate every step of the process with patience and professionalism. I genuinely appreciate the dedication, support, and guidance this team has provided.I am incredibly grateful for CSG Financial and would highly recommend them anytime, any day.

As adults just starting out, Shane has helped my husband and I get on the right path to becoming more financially responsible and smarter with our money! He is very easy to work and communicate with. If we have any questions he is very responsive and helps lay out the best options for our futures. Would highly recommend this company!

Shane has been an incredible financial planner for our family! We’re in the middle of planning some major home renovations, and his guidance has made a huge difference. He takes the time to explain everything clearly, never judges our decisions, and always makes us feel supported.Thanks to Shane, we feel so much more confident about our finances and our future. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in your goals, we couldn’t recommend him/CSG more highly.

Zach and Steve are very passionate about their profession. They work tirelessly with the latest technologies, coupled with their enthusism you'll have 100% confidence in their ability to meet or exceed your financial goals. They are always available and can be counted on for efficient/prompt replies. They have the know-how talent to educate clients on complex financial topics which helped me feel more knowledgeable and in control of my finances. Thanks to the CSG Team, I have complete peace of mind knowing that my family is protected.

I had a great experience working with Zack at CSG Financial and fully plan to continue our working relationship going forward. He’s clearly an expert in his field, but most impressive was his ability to explain everything in simple, layman terms. He took the time to make sure we felt informed and confident in every decision. It’s rare to find someone so knowledgeable and approachable at the same time. Highly recommend

I went into this experience with CSG not knowing a lot about how to save money and plan for retirement. After less than a year of mentoring from Shane and Zach I already feel way more confident and comfortable with my saving and spending habits. Both of them have been super communicative throughout the process and instrumental in helping me reach my financial goals and I couldn’t be more grateful.

Me and my partner came to CSG with debt and were uncertain of how to proceed to get out and start saving. Shane and Zach were so easy to talk to and plan together with. If we make a misstep there is no criticism, they just continue to offer us support and come up with a better plan for us! We love CSG and really would not be where we are today without this group. We highly recommend!!

I've worked with CSG since their inception about a year ago as they have provided their guidance and expertise to Optometry residents that I oversee. I also personally have worked with Shane for my own financial planning and cannot say enough good things about my experience. They are always prompt to reply to communications, knowledgeable in their explanations of all things financial, and ensure to provide a personalized experience. Their dedication and compassion for their clients and business are unmatched!

I can’t say enough good things about the team at CSG Financial. A friend recommended them when I was looking for a trusted advisor for a family member, and from day one, they’ve been the perfect fit. They’re patient, down-to-earth, and somehow manage to make financial planning feel way less intimidating—no pressure, no confusing jargon, just honest advice from people who actually care. They take the time to listen, answer every question, and make sure my family feels confident in their decisions. They even laugh at my mom’s jokes (which is a real testament to their kindness 😁). It never feels like just business—they truly treat your family like their own. If you’re looking for financial advisors who are smart, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in their clients, I highly recommend them!

Excellent experience with the CSG team thus far! Extremely knowledgeable, understanding of my time constraints and ever-changing schedules, patient with my lack of understanding of this entire field and willing to take the time to explain options and alternatives to meet my end goals. Exceeding my expectations for growth to date as well - highly recommend you give these guys a call.

I was hesitant to reach out to a financial advisor as I didn’t even know where to start and the thought of planning that far ahead in my future made me anxious. I was introduced to CSG Financial (specifically Shane first) through a mutual friend and have not looked back! Since the moment I met Shane he made me feel comfortable and explained things in terms I could understand. He never makes me feel pressured to make decisions, but rather helps to guide me based on my future goals! They are easily accessible when I have questions and always open to set up a quick check in. They are prompt at replying and following up. I am very happy with my decision and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for a financial advisor that you can trust!

I initially sought out Zack’s help after my mother passed, as I wasn’t sure how to handle her estate. Zack went through a total education with me to help me understand how all of these moving parts worked. Because of this, I’ve been able to not only administer her estate efficiently, I’ve also been able to put together a full plan of what to do afterwards. Zack’s help has been instrumental in helping myself, and my family, have more confidence in our financials, as well as have a plan for anything that comes our way. Can’t recommend Zack enough!

What I like most about CSG and working with Steve is that they truly put client’s needs first. They started their own group to serve clients’ needs first and foremost. Not only do I feel like my goals are valued and executed for, I am educated on every decision we are making. I highly recommending chatting with Steve!
