Holmdel Resident Recognized As Rising Star Of The Banking Industry

HOLMDEL, NJ — A Holmdel resident has been recognized as one of 22 rising stars of the banking industry by the NJ Bankers Association.

Tony Almeida, an executive risk advisor at CBIZ Borden Perlman, was recognized during the association’s annual Awards Dinner on Nov. 7. The dinner took place at the Stone House at Stirling Ridge, Warren.

The Rising Star Award aims to recognize individuals going above and beyond to support their company and their communities, officials said.

For the first time this year, awards were open to non-bank members of NJBankers. These are businesses that work with the banking industry to ensure its success, officials said.

Honorees were nominated by their institution and chosen by an independent panel of judges based on their leadership qualities, contributions to the banking industry and their commitment to better serving their community.

A graduate of Rutgers University, Almedia got his start in the insurance industry according to the CBIZ Borden Perlman website.

Now an executive risk advisor with CBIZ Borden Perlman, Almedia is currently a member of the Matawan Chamber of Commerce and the Business Networking International Organization.

He, alongside Stephanie Ennett of Forked River, Mary Helena of Newark, and Matthew Mirett, Esq. of Morristown, is just one of many NJ rising star honorees in 2024.
