Bryan W. Scott

Bryan Scott is the Director of Insurance Solutions at The Manning Companies, where he brings over 20 years of experience and a deeply held belief that every client deserves a personalized approach rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. He specializes in estate planning, wealth transfer strategies, and asset protection through life insurance, long-term care, disability income, and annuity solutions, partnering with the advisor team and helping clients integrate insurance solutions into a comprehensive financial plan designed to manage risk and maximize tax efficiency.

What sets Bryan apart is his commitment to education and advanced planning. He takes the time to ensure every client understands their options and feels heard throughout the process, drawing on deep industry knowledge to guide complex decisions.

Bryan's path into financial services began right out of college when an opportunity at a bank opened the door to a career that has spanned two decades. He built his career across finance, mortgage, and risk management. Most recently, he served as Regional Vice President at Ash Brokerage, a role that deepened his ability to deliver sophisticated insurance solutions across a wide range of client situations. His work at Ash brought him into close collaboration with The Manning Companies team over the years, and in 2026 he joined us directly to focus on delivering strategic insurance solutions as an integrated part of our broader planning approach.

Bryan holds a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Geology from Purdue University Fort Wayne, where he also played baseball all four years as a catcher and first baseman.

Based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, he lives with his fiancée Rachel, their son Beau, and their Golden Retriever, Gus. Outside of work, he enjoys golf, hiking, cooking, and cheering on his favorite college sports teams.
