About Larry Bacon 

Larry Bacon has over 30 years of financial experience working for Wells Fargo, Chase 

Manhattan and the U.S. Export-Import Banks before starting his own investment advisory 

firm in 1992.  He currently serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Nonprofits’ 

Insurance Alliance of California and President of the Carmel Valley Trail & Saddle Club. 

With a strong sense of financial responsibility, Larry supports incorporation for the Town of 

Carmel Valley as a way to bring local control over development projects, while allowing 

growth under sensible and sustainable land use policies that respect and protect the rural 

economic character of the area.  Larry’s financial expertise will be invaluable on the Town 

Council in providing fiscal accountability and in formulating budgets that do not lead to tax 

increases but meet the community’s needs for police, public works, and planning and 

building services.  Involved in the lengthy process to bring incorporation to a vote, he now 

welcomes the opportunity to participate in the start-up of the new Town.
