Since 2003, GAB International has partnered with employers, physicians, attorneys, and individuals across the country — designing benefits, retirement, and insurance strategies that quietly compound into extraordinary outcomes.
Whether you run a company, oversee a rollover, or are designing wealth that outlives you — we meet you with the same philosophy: clarity over complexity, outcomes over product.
We don't just broker benefits — we manage them down to the supply-chain level. The result: richer plans for your people at materially lower cost to your business.
Roll 401(k), 403(b), or IRA assets into vehicles built to protect principal, generate predictable income, and outlast a 30-year retirement. We compare every option, including leaving your money where it is, so you can decide with clear eyes.
Sophisticated insurance architecture built for executives, founders, and professionals — tax-advantaged cash value accumulation, wealth preservation, and a protection chassis engineered for a lifetime.
Felipe Barganier is a self-made entrepreneur and one of the few African-American founders of a successful benefits brokerage firm in the United States. A University of Rochester economics graduate, he began his career in financial services in 1999, and in 2003 he opened the doors of GAB International.
Named for his daughter — Gabriel Angelee Barganier — the firm was founded on a simple conviction: that the people who sell financial products should look, think, and advise more like the communities they serve. Two decades later, Felipe is a two-time bestselling author of Breaking Through the Status Quo, a sought-after keynote speaker, and a member of the NextGen Benefits Mastermind alongside the country's leading benefits advisors.
We're independent. What lands in your plan is what fits your situation, not what a carrier's contest happens to be rewarding this quarter.
Most brokers shop. We engineer, managing benefits down to the supply chain so your plan dollars go further.
A plan that works for a 28-year-old doesn't serve a 58-year-old. We build coverage that respects who your people actually are.
Our Gift of GAB program brings financial literacy seminars into your workplace — because benefits matter most when employees understand them.
Whether you're an HR director reviewing open-enrollment numbers, a physician considering a rollover, or a founder exploring advanced insurance planning — the first conversation is always at no cost and no obligation.
