Jeffry Kraus
Senior Vice President, Investments
630-655-8485

Jeff began his career at Wayne Hummer shortly after graduating from the University of Michigan in 1987. He is building successful client relationships by helping individuals gain a clear understanding of the many investment products and programs that are available to them in the market today. Jeff's knowledge of financial products is extensive. Through education and straightforward communication, he is motivating investors to develop and execute unique investment programs that will help reach specific financial goals. His ongoing role with his clients is to be readily available to refine and evaluate the progress of these plans in light of the changes that occur over the course of one's lifetime. This process takes place in the Wayne Hummer environment much the same as it has since 1931, independent and free from investment banking and research conflicts that exist at many firms today.

In addition to stocks, bonds, mutual funds, annuities and retirement planning, Jeff is also a licensed insurance producer. No estate plan is complete until the issues of life insurance and long-term care coverage have been addressed.

Jeff lives in Chicago's Western Suburbs with his wife Jeri and their two sons. Jeff's office is located at 25 East First Street, Hinsdale, IL 60521. He is available by appointment at all Old Plank Trail Community Bank locations.
