About Us
Founded in 1992, The Pacific Bridge Companies (TPBC) has deep roots in financial services and community activism dating back to the 1930s when our founder’s grandfather led the charge to abolish racially discriminatory practices in the life insurance industry of the United States.
Today, we’re all about making global financial navigation a reality. It’s often difficult for global citizens to interpret the complex cross-border laws governing insurance, investments, banking, tax, and law. We help financial advisors guide these clients wherever their lives may lead by providing advice, financial planning ideas, and connections to other finance and insurance professionals ready to help.
Initially aiming our efforts at people and companies living multi-national lives between Asia and the United States, we are now expanding to meet the growing demand for similar services in other parts of the world. That’s why we need you!
