About Zachary Stone

Zachary Stone is a Dover born & raised Financial-Planner at CSG Financial, where he serves as Chief Financial Officer. He attended Holy Cross middle school, Dover High School where he was a proud member of the baseball team, and eventually Bridgewater College became his alma mater.

Zack absolutely loves what he does, and also believes one of the most essential parts of his job is to continuously take in knowledge. Zack is always learning, and always listening and trying to understand what makes each one of his clients tick.

Because of this, he has a knack for better understanding where someone might be trying to go, and can explain sometimes very complex strategies, in a simple and easy to understand manner.

Zack has the utmost pride in being able to help better guide people to having a better relationship with money, as well as to ensure they feel confident in living the life they want to live. Zack also believes any financial-plan needs to be built with incredible flexibility, and because of that - his work brings him great fulfillment.

When Zack is not in the office, you can find him at the Delaware beaches enjoying nice weather with friends & family. If he's not there, he's probably watching a Phil's game, or having a heated debate over movies with his colleague, Steve Calio.

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.

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.

Shane and Zach are amazing! Honest, knowledgeable and supportive. I trust them and I would recommend them to anyone I know. Easy to get in contact with either one of them. They been a great resource for me this past year. If you’re considering giving them a shot I’d say go for it!

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!
