Steve Syrmopoulos has been working in the finance and financial planning arenas for over 40 years; personal financial planning, corporate finance, and international finance. He has been teaching money formally and informally for 30 years. His planning practice consists of individuals and small businesses, to whom he provides investment and retirement program suggestions and ideas primarily in the context of his position as an educator. Steve worked with Ernst & Young LLP in their Private Financial Consulting Group making retirement presentations to individuals and corporate employees of client firms including State Farm, U.S. Federal employees, and military families in all branches of the service. The research Dr. Syrmopoulos conducts is in the area of Financial Literacy, studied through the prism of Behavioral Finance or as he likes to put it, why people make the decisions they make about money. This ongoing research work has examined the efficacy of private Financial Literacy programs, and the lack of retirement plans in small businesses. Steve has been at Northern Arizona University since 2018 and is himself a passionate lifelong learner. He feels very strongly when he states that ‘education is his passion and teaching is his privilege’.
