The Finance District of St. Petersburg
is Getting a
Game Changer The new Merrill Lynch Wealth Management Center opened in downtown St.
Petersburg, at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg (USFSP) Kate
Teidemann College of Business (KTCOB). Dr. Sridhar Sundaram has been hard
at work preparing the college and surrounding area for the Center’s opening, and
academic programming scheduled for the fall of 2018.
Dean Sundaram first joined the USFSP team in 2016. He has accomplished many
things in his first two years as Dean, with his most recent being the addition of the
Merrill Lynch Wealth Management Center. He brings with him a wealth of knowledge
and the leadership skills to develop a clear strategic vision for the College. Dean
Sundaram was gracious enough to speak with the FLocal Magazine team, giving us
a glimpse into what the Wealth Management Center programs will look like, the
opportunities the program brings to USFSP students, and the positive impact it will
have on the finance industry of the greater Tampa Bay Area.
