About Robert McAllister

Robert McAllister, Sr. is a Senior Vice President, Portfolio Manager and Wealth Advisor with The Boulder Legacy Group in Boulder, Colorado. He has been with the Firm since 1993 and is grateful every day for opportunities to make a difference for his clients.

Rob has developed a strong consultative approach to addressing some of his clients’ biggest concerns, but his process starts with careful and compassionate listening. Understanding what matters most to his clients is what matters most to him. Rob then develops personalized strategies to help clients manage wealth, mitigate taxes, take care of family, and contribute to causes they care most about. Rob is committed to working with his clients, and this relationship has led to stewardship of family wealth over multiple generations.

Rob grew up in southern New Jersey outside of Philadelphia. He had successful careers in commercial and vacation real estate and real estate development. He spent ten years as a professional musician performing with distinguished entertainers. Throughout these early years, he found a passion for helping others make informed decisions about their wealth and assets. This led him to a career in wealth management where he has spent 30-plus years helping clients--from families to business owners to retirees—accomplish their wealth and legacy goals.

Rob enjoys working with clients around the country and splits his time between offices in the greater Philadelphia and Denver areas. Outside of work, Rob enjoys skiing in Colorado, participating in health and wellness activities, polishing his musical skills on Trombone and Piano, and traveling.

1When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.

6The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.
