Sandy Brown - New Business Coordinator
Like the financial institutions we serve, we know that the foundation and strength of our company hinges upon the quality of our employees. FICC's personnel are leaders in the industry and include CPAs, attorneys, and financial analysts with extensive expertise in regulatory, tax and accounting considerations for executive compensation plans.
Larry P. Chinn, J. D. - President & Chief Executive Officer
In 1988, Mr. Chinn created FICC and established it as a preeminent leader of non-qualified deferred compensations plans. As the President and CEO, Mr. Chinn oversees legal, accounting and compliance, and underwriting issues of the benefit plans. It is Mr. Chinn's firm belief that the success of a non-qualified plan rests on communication with the plan participants; therefore, Mr. Chinn makes himself widely available to plan participants to answer their questions.
Prior to founding FICC, Mr. Chinn served as CEO of another bank consulting firm, where he provided a full range of consulting services with emphasis on employee benefit and executive compensation planning, as well as the formulation of bank holding companies. In private law practice, he focused on financial institution regulatory law, executive compensation planning, and securities and tax litigation.

He earned salutatorian honors with both his undergraduate degree and law degree at the University of Memphis.
