Tim Pagliara Net Worth

Timothy J. Pagliara is the founder, chairman, and chief investment officer of CapWealth Advisors, one of Tennessee's leading independent wealth management firms managing nearly $2 billion in assets. An attorney, author, and decorated financial advisor, Pagliara has been ranked the #1 wealth advisor in Tennessee by both Forbes and Barron's multiple times.

Beyond wealth management, Pagliara is best known as the founder and executive director of Investors Unite, a coalition of over 2,000 individual investors fighting to protect shareholder rights in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. He has called the government's Net Worth Sweep 'the largest and most brazen expropriation of private property in the nation's history' and has spent over a decade lobbying Congress, filing lawsuits, and educating the public on the issue.

Pagliara authored 'Another Big Lie: How the Government Stole Billions from the American Dream of Home Ownership' (ForbesBooks, 2021), personally filed the first-ever books-and-records lawsuits against the GSEs, and built an unlikely bipartisan coalition with Ralph Nader to advocate for shareholder restitution. He fought the SEC in federal court over alleged 12b-1 fee violations and won a full acquittal in 2022.

An avid adventurer, Pagliara has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro 11 times and reached Everest Base Camp. Through the Pagliara Family Charities, he helped build Mwenge Catholic University in Moshi, Tanzania, which now enrolls 4,300 students in math and science.
