About
Our Origin
Derrick Fort began his career in financial services in 2012, bringing holistic planning and investment management to families throughout South Carolina and beyond. The transition to financial services was a natural transition from full time ministry. Born from a deep-seated desire to serve people and a passion for a values-based life, wealth planning and guidance was a logical next step in his career. With the launch of Agape Wealth Strategies, a name symbolizing Godly love, Derrick and his team aim to bring easy-to-understand investment solutions with a personal touch.
