Fiduciary embracing Fee-Only Financial Planner serving clients Nationwide.

Vincent Barbera is a Berwyn, PA fee-only financial planner. Newbridge Wealth Management provides comprehensive financial planning, investment management, and retirement and legacy planning to help executives and small business owners organize, grow and protect their assets through life’s transitions. As a fee-only, fiduciary, and independent financial advisor, Vincent Barbera is never paid a commission of any kind, and has a legal obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice.
Vincent R. Barbera, CFP® is dedicated to helping families achieve a comfortable life. As a husband and father, he knows firsthand the financial pressures that parents face in choosing the right schools for their children, providing meaningful memories like summer camp and sports, and saving for their future college tuition—all the while making sure to put enough aside for their own retirement. As a financial advisor, Vincent thrives in helping families understand their options and make informed decisions to realize their dreams.
Before co-founding Newbridge Wealth Management, Vincent started his career at The Vanguard Group. Not only did he gain invaluable experience at the company, but he came to two realizations that shaped his future: First, investing must be low-cost for families to have the best opportunity for success. And second, investing should be just one part in a comprehensive financial plan that helps families meet their goals. After gaining additional experience at an independent advisory firm, he was fortunate enough to meet someone who shared his vision, and Newbridge Wealth Management was formed. Today, Vincent is thrilled to co-lead a firm emphasizing comprehensive financial planning, a fiduciary obligation to put clients’ best interests first, and technology tools that complement the firm’s holistic advice. Vincent makes his home in Valley Forge with his wife and three sons.
He loves to take his boys hiking, and exploring places they have never seen before. Other favorite activities include enjoying coffee, watching science fiction movies on rainy days, enjoying more coffee, and spending time at the beach.
