Bryan Gort

Chief Compliance Officer

Mr. Gort assumed the role of Chief Compliance Officer in 2024. He is also a founding member of Century Compliance, LLC, an investment advisor consulting firm.

Mr. Gort has extensive experience as an attorney. He is a partner at the law firm Parker MacIntyre, where he specializes in providing regulatory and compliance-related services to registered investment advisers (“RIAs”). At Parker MacIntyre, Mr. Gort manages the day-to-day tasks of keeping track of regulatory deadlines for all the firm’s RIA clients and oversees the work of Parker MacIntyre associates. In this role, he routinely drafts Investment Advisory Agreements for RIAs, disclosure documents (including Form ADV Parts 1, 2, and 3 (CRS), Form U4, and point-of-sale disclosures), compliance manual procedures, and other ancillary documents for RIAs. Although he is an attorney, his formal role at Quest 10 Wealth Builders is solely that of Chief Compliance Officer—not as general counsel or legal officer.

Since 2013, Mr. Gort has accumulated experience creating solutions for problems faced by registered investment advisers. Throughout his time at Parker MacIntyre, he has helped RIAs prepare for SEC and state regulatory examinations, provided compliance guidance for RIA and broker-dealer clients, and researched many recent developments in securities rules and regulations (including cybersecurity, advertising, and custody). Mr. Gort regularly consults with clients and prospective clients regarding the most efficient options for RIA registration with various regulatory authorities. He has also been involved in and helped negotiate mergers, acquisitions, and successions of RIA businesses. Mr. Gort has assisted registered investment advisers of all sizes in complying with SEC and state regulations and responding to regulatory deficiency letters.

A native of Atlanta, Mr. Gort is a graduate of the Walter F. George School of Law at Mercer University. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Kentucky, earning a B.A. in Political Science and History, cum laude, in May 2010. During his collegiate career, Mr. Gort was a nationally competitive policy debater, earning both individual and team awards at tournaments around the country.

In his spare time, Mr. Gort enjoys competing in disc golf tournaments, playing ALTA tennis, and watching Atlanta Braves baseball.
