HOME

The sMa Institute

The sMa Institute is a Behavioral Finance think tank. It’s early wealth-stratification research revealed how emotional intelligence leads to decisions that enable economic dignity and improves quality of life.  

The company began as New York /Scottsdale based Strategic Management Advisors. It was there, seasoned executives developed breakthrough objectives, vastly improving business models and operating performance for a broad range of end users.

By 2008 it evolved exclusively into a research firm. Subsequently, it introduced deeper discoveries about emotional factors inherent in economic data, setting new standards for socio-economic-forecasting and investment policies.

Today, sMa Institute Ltd., is a stock market centric  private company advocating Peace through Prosperity. It challenges injustices by identifying cognitive factors that maximize financial self-empowerment. 

sMa Institute’s senior partner is industry veteran and wealth expert Kevin J. Palmer. A decisive leader and investor who values knowledge, ethics and method. He spent decades developing and driving strategic revenue models for Wall Street companies before becoming CEO of a behavioral finance firm.

The Quiet Rich

Kevin J. Palmer has written a fascinating book that pulls back the curtain on wealth and success in America. More than a “how-to” book, this is an “I can” book that illustrates how connecting behaviors that naturally exist within one’s personality makes it easier for anyone to unleash success.

In this book, Kevin shares how ordinary people have become millionaires by following their spiritual drivers. A former industry leader with big Wall Street companies and a CEO at a behavioral finance firm, Kevin conducted years of research into cognitive influences that position people to attain wealth on their own terms. Kevin’s research shows that by choosing to live authentically and connecting your personality to the vastness of your spirit, you can achieve the abundance you’ve been looking for.

 

 

 

 

 

 “Finding intelligent solutions for complicated situations has always been a reward! I was blessed to retire young enough to explore other passions too, like wildlife rescue, and archaeology. I was honored with the Governor’s Archaeology Award and soon after wrote a book that encompassed what was discovered from my adventure’s so that others could chart a course commensurate with the core self.”   ~ Kevin J.
