Roman Galey -SouthGroup Insurance

Advisor, Investor, Entrepreneur, Confidant

I am the founder of Capital G, a dynamic conglomerate encompassing a diverse portfolio of companies in insurance, real estate, and various investment sectors. With a commitment to excellence and innovation, I have dedicated my career to identifying and cultivating business opportunities that drive growth and success.

I am carrying the torch forward with my family business and civil duties. ‘Galey’ has been a household name for three generations. I wanted to carry this name forward keeping some of the traditions but bringing its invovlement into current relevant times. 

Hence the evolution of Capital G

 

My academic journey began at Florida State University, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Anthropology and Political Science. I continued my education in the insurance sector by obtaining professional designations as a Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) and a Professional Workers Compensation Advisor (PWCA). I am President of SouthGroup – The Galey Agency, Inc., where I work closely with clients to assess and manage organizational risks.

In addition to my work in the insurance industry, I serve as the President of Galey Companies, Inc., a private real estate investment firm. I have held a MS Real Estate License that I have maintained for over 16 years. Through this role, I have led complex collaborations to identify, evaluate, and execute development and investment opportunities, further diversifying my business ventures. Additionally, I have begun to invest in private start-up companies.

Beyond my professional endeavors, I am deeply committed to my community. I have had the privilege of serving on various boards and commissions, including the Area Development Partnership (ADP) Executive Committee, where I previously held the position of Chairman and Chair the City of Hattiesburg Civil Commission. I’ve been bred into a believe in civic engagement that spans over 3 generations. Giving back to the community drives much of my work outside of business.

On a personal note, I am a husband and father of two who loves the outdoors and staying active. Whether it’s hunting, fishing, running, recreational boxing, or weightlifting, I thrive on new challenges and adventures. I also enjoy connecting with people, attending live music events, and exploring new experiences.

Through Capital G, I continue to pursue my passion for building businesses and creating lasting value. It’s not just about success—it’s about making a meaningful impact on the industries I serve and the communities I’m a part of.

My favorite things to see in life are concepts that develop into something viable. Something that others don’t see but you have a clear vision of it and it comes to fruition.
