Mr. O’Farrell possesses more than 20 years of industry sales and development experience.

During his tenure, he strategized and marketed the company’s first site license subscriptions. Mr. O’Farrell has also been the publisher of Family Wealth Report, in addition to working with Thomson Reuters and Merrill Lynch.
“As a leader in any organization, hiring is arguably one of the most challenging demands,” says Tom Parker, Executive Vice President and Publisher at IREI. “When you find a person that not only aligns with your culture and core values but will add to them, that is very rewarding. During the interview process, it was obvious Ed was searching for that same alignment. Ed demonstrated a strong desire to learn and to problem solve, which will be key factors in executing RAA’s refreshed business strategy.”
As Managing Director, Mr. O’Farrell will be responsible for client relations, business development and sales for Real Assets Adviser. He will report to Mr. Parker and be based in New Jersey.
