Leadership Team
Brian Cain
Focus
Welcome to Viribus Wealth Management. We built this practice to change the culture of financial advice. We believe in individualized, personalized financial solutions to help individuals and families achieve the goals and dreams that are important to them. We also believe in unwavering service and dedication to our clients.
Background and experience
I’ve spent over two decades in this profession. I’ve worked inside of a bank trust company and private banking division – before deciding to launch Viribus Wealth Management. I wanted to serve and add value to clients and their families. My experience provides me with the ability to advise, but my passion for people is what I believe sets me apart from the industry norm.
Away from the office
When I am not working with clients, I love going on adventures with my wife, Holly, and our 6 children. Having memorable life experiences with my own family shapes the advice and guidance I give to my clients. Family always has been and always will be my life’s passion. In my 20 years in Terre Haute I have worked with numerous organizations including: United Way of the Wabash Valley, The Historical Society, St. Patrick’s Church and School, The Chamber of Commerce, and the Vigo County Library. I will continue to volunteer time and talent to this community that has given so much to me and my family, and I will continue to work hard to give back to families that have trusted me with their financial futures.
