Tyler Zaborsky
Investment Adviser Representative
Tyler Zaborsky is the Founder of Basking Ridge Wealth, an independent advisory firm established in 2025 with a mission centered around helping families, professionals, and business owners build enduring financial strength through thoughtful planning and disciplined risk management.
Prior to founding Basking Ridge Wealth, Tyler spent nearly a decade at Stifel Nicolaus within the firm’s Fixed Income Capital Markets division, where he worked closely with institutional clients across the country—including banks, credit unions, insurance companies, hedge funds, and asset managers. During his tenure, he assisted in helping institutions navigate portfolio risk, interest rate environments, and fixed income strategy across a broad spectrum of investments including municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, corporate credit, and various derivative instruments. This experience provided Tyler with a deep understanding of market structure, portfolio construction, and the importance of risk-adjusted decision making.
In 2019, Tyler transitioned into private wealth management with Vera Capital, where he spent the next several years helping individuals and families align their financial lives with long-term goals and values. His advisory approach evolved beyond investments alone, focusing on the integration of retirement income planning, tax-efficient strategies, investment management, insurance planning, legacy planning, and business planning.
Today, Tyler’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that sophisticated financial guidance should not be reserved solely for institutions or ultra-high-net-worth investors. Through Basking Ridge Wealth, he aims to bring institutional-level thinking and personalized advice to the families and business owners he serves every day.
In addition to his experience in financial services, Tyler has an entrepreneurial background spanning real estate, contracting, hospitality, and small business operations—giving him a practical appreciation for the real-world challenges faced by business owners and working families alike.
Tyler earned his Bachelor of Science in Economics from Rutgers University. Outside of his professional life, he is an avid practitioner of Judo and Jiu-Jitsu, coaches wrestling at multiple levels, and enjoys outdoor pursuits including rock climbing, hiking, surfing, and golf.
Tyler resides in Basking Ridge, New Jersey with his wife, Gaby, their son Evan, and their dog, Roxy.
