Putting culture first.

Our culture is rooted in our values, which define who we are as a firm.

Excellence

We are uncompromising in our commitment to professional excellence and continuous improvement.

Mutual respect

We strive to show a deep respect for everyone with whom we interact.

Integrity

We believe any enduring relationship must be anchored by a shared belief in doing the right thing.

Entrepreneurial Spirit

We encourage all employees to possess the same entrepreneurial spirit on which our firm was founded.

Driven by excellence; fueled by Fundamentals.

Balentine has developed an inventory of 30 Fundamentals that serve as the foundation of everyday employee life and the backbone of our client service philosophy at the firm. We call these Fundamentals the Balentine Way. Each week, a different Fundamental is highlighted, and serves as a source of inspiration in everything from email topics to pre-meeting discussion and internal gatherings among staff. Here are some of our favorite Fundamentals of note, as described by members of the Balentine team.

Give back. Pay it forward.
“I am observing so much kindness and generosity from all areas of the firm. We have so many new people and the training and help that is going on in every area makes me proud. All seem to be leaning in to help and they also seem to be enjoying it. I know I am. So fun to be around these young folks who are excited to learn and to make a positive difference.”

Brittain Prigge
