OUR LEGACY

Building Trust, Creating Generations of Success

From humble beginnings, Arnold Van Den Berg, a Holocaust survivor, learned at an early age the value of hard work, sacrifice and helping others. His spirit of service has guided both his life and the way he leads Century Management, inspiring a team that shares his values and passion for helping clients achieve their goals—a commitment that has defined Century Management’s success. 

Today, Century Management is led by second- and third-generation family members, alongside an experienced and dedicated team. For more than 50 years, we’ve built trusted relationships with individuals, families, and business owners—grounded in a simple promise: to act as fiduciaries and client advocates at every step.

       
That commitment continues through Century Management’s leadership, which has naturally transitioned within the family. Arnold’s son, Scott Van Den Berg, joined in 1992 and now serves as President, continuing our tradition of value-driven investing while expanding the firm’s capabilities in wealth management. Arnold’s son-in-law, Jim Brilliant, who began in 1986, now serves as Chief Investment Officer, guiding our investment strategies with the disciplined, value-based approach that has always been our hallmark.
 
Our commitment to family and client services now extends to the third generation. Scott’s daughter, Rachel Van Den Berg, joined in 2019 as a Wealth Planning Associate, bringing fresh insights and dedication to helping clients achieve their financial goals. Jim’s son, Greyson Brilliant, has been contributing as an Equity Analyst since 2016, committed to maintaining excellence in our research and analysis.


At the center of our work is a passion to help people achieve their goals and improve their lives. We believe every interaction is an opportunity to make a positive impact. Our values guide us: act with integrity, strive for better outcomes and remain transparent. We bring objectivity and humility to every decision, grounded in independent thinking, facts, and lessons from the past. And above all, we live by the Golden Rule—treating every person fairly, honestly, ethically and with compassion.

We believe financial peace of mind is best achieved when your money is aligned with what matters most: supporting the way you live today, the goals you’re working toward, and the legacy you hope to leave.
