AOG Wealth Management held its 3 ^rd annual Energy Panel forum event, combined with an economic outlook presentation provided by Bob Stein , Deputy Chief Economist with First Trust. The event was held on May 7 ^th at the Tower Club in Tyson’s Corner, VA and welcomed over 50 accredited clients. Attendees dined while listening to Mr. Stein’s perspective on how the ever changing U.S. political climate impacts the economy, and how those changes then impact the investment community. Bob Stein is Deputy Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors L.P. where he is responsible for forecasting and analyzing economic indicators as well as writing economic commentaries. Immediately prior to joining First Trust, Mr. Stein was Assistant Secretary for Economic Policy at the U.S. Treasury Department.

In addition to Mr. Stein’s compelling U.S. Political and Economic Outlook presentation, AOG’s CEO & President, Fred Baerenz, moderated a panel of industry experts in the field of oil and gas investments. Panel members included the Director of Marketing from one of the United States’ most prominent independent oil and natural gas producers in the Anadarko and Permian Basins of Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. The company’s success over the years can be attributed to a conservative approach to the business and a philosophy of managing all phases of operations from “prospect to pipeline.” Joining the oil and gas investment representative was Steve Bailey . Bringing thirty years of experience on Capitol Hill, the Executive branch, and the private sector, Mr. Bailey manages the budget and tax practice for Heather Podesta + Partners. His in-depth knowledge of tax policy and politics is rivaled by few others and offered a unique view of the impact of Capitol Hill on a variety of investment opportunities.  In addition, Mr. Stein joined the panel and provided significant insight on the relationship between politics and energy and oil investments. Fred posed a number of intricate questions to the panel such as:
