Local Advisor Andy Friedman Joins Signature Wealth, Strengthening Pawleys Island Team

PAWLEYS ISLAND, S.C., Sept. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- After more than a decade serving families in Georgetown and the Grand Strand, financial advisor Andy Friedman has joined Signature Wealth Strategies, an independent wealth management practice affiliated with Raymond James. Known for his relationship-first approach and deep community involvement, Friedman brings a proven track record of helping families build financial strategies that last across generations.

"What excites me about joining Signature is the opportunity to continue serving clients in an unbiased way, now with the support of a larger concierge team and more comprehensive resources," Friedman added. "Whether it's planning for retirement or protecting a family's financial future, I've always believed in setting clear goals, building the right strategy, and coordinating with trusted professionals like CPAs and estate planning attorneys to make it all work together."

Friedman began his career as an Edward Jones advisor in 2014, inspired by the difference a solid plan made for his own family's financial security. For more than ten years, he and his longtime associate, Jackie Walters, have provided personal, hands-on guidance to families in Georgetown and Pawleys Island. Together, they now bring that same dedicated service to Signature Wealth.

Friedman has lived in Pawleys Island with his wife, Edwina, since 2007 and serves on the board of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and The Georgetown School of Arts & Science. He is also active with the Georgetown Lions Club, the Georgetown Theatre Orchestra, and the Pawleys Island Concert Band. He is passionate about supporting youth education and the arts, often through local sponsorships and events.

This move for Andy and Jackie coincides with the opening of Signature Wealth's new Pawleys Island office, established earlier this year by Chip Munn, CEO of Signature Wealth Group and 5x Forbes Best-In-State Wealth Advisor. Munn, along with his son and fellow advisor Carson Munn, relocated to the Hammock Coast to bring Signature's high-touch wealth planning experience closer to the coastal families they've already served for many years.

"Andy is the kind of advisor every community wants. He's trusted, approachable, and fully invested in the lives of the families he serves," said Chip Munn. "We are proud to welcome him into our Signature Wealth Community and excited to grow together here in Pawleys Island."

The new office, located at 159 Library Lane, Pawleys Island, will host a ribbon-cutting and community open house with the Georgetown County Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday, October 7, 2025.
