American Marconi Wireless News - Elevate Financial Partners Recognized by LIBRA Insurance Partners as Fastest Growing Agency

NEWPORT BEACH, CA / ACCESS Newswire / April 14, 2026 / Elevate Financial Partners, an independent, multi-entity financial services organization offering integrated financial planning solutions, has been named the 2025 Fastest Growing Life Insurance Agency within LIBRA Insurance Partners, the largest independently owned insurance marketing organization (IMO) in the United States. The recognition was presented during LIBRA's Momentum 2026 meeting, where the exclusive network of partner agencies from across the country gathered to collaborate and share best practices.

"This recognition is a direct result of the people behind it, our clients, our team, and our partners," said Stephen Peterson, Founder and Managing Partner of Elevate Financial Partners. "We have stayed focused on building what our clients actually need: coordinated planning that addresses their full financial picture, removes complexity, and gives them confidence in every financial decision they make. Our growth is a reflection of that focused commitment."

Throughout 2025, Elevate Financial Partners expanded its service model, talent bench, and planning capabilities in response to a rapidly growing and diverse client base seeking more integrated, coordinated financial planning. Key growth initiatives included:

• A fully integrated, six-discipline planning model spanning life insurance and estate planning, advanced financial planning, tax strategy, investment advisory, business planning, and alternative investments

• An expanded advisory team bringing in-house tax strategy, investment oversight, and estate planning expertise into a single, coordinated relationship

• A proprietary planning process, The Elevate 360°, designed to bring all disciplines together into one cohesive plan and simplify complex financial decisions

These enhancements are part of a broader effort to reduce fragmentation in financial advice and provide clients with a more unified approach to planning.

"Elevate Financial Partners represents the next generation of agencies," said Bill Shelow, CLU®, ChFC®, CPCU®, LLIF, President & CEO of LIBRA Insurance Partners. "Stephen has built a client-first firm that invests in its people, its capabilities, and its clients' outcomes. Earning this recognition in their first full year as a LIBRA partner agency is a testament to that commitment, and we look forward to where this firm is headed."
