Drawing on more than three decades in the financial industry, Chris Arriz provides clients with thoughtful guidance shaped by both his institutional background and extensive wealth management experience, helping them pursue their goals across generations.
Originally from Peru, Chris moved to the United States for his education, attending boarding school before graduating from the University of Pennsylvania in 1988. While at Penn, he met his wife, Wendy, who is a successful real estate agent with Sotheby's.
Following his undergraduate studies, Chris earned his MBA from Columbia University, launching his career on the institutional side of the financial industry. After more than two decades, he transitioned to wealth management, where he has spent the past 11 years helping clients pursue their financial goals with clarity.
A longtime New Yorker, Chris has lived on the Upper East Side for more than 30 years. He and Wendy have three children: twin sons, Stephen and Andrew, who both work in New York City, and a daughter, Caroline, who recently graduated from the University of Colorado.
In his free time, Chris enjoys cooking, traveling, and staying active through golf, tennis, and fishing. Most of all, he treasures time with his children, whether gathering for family meals, exploring new places together, or spending summers on Cape Cod.

My Approach - Working With You & Who I Serve
With greater wealth comes greater complexity. My typical client needs more sophisticated solutions, tailored advice, and first-class service.
My approach to client service is simple – we put you at the center of everything we do. We recognize that getting to know you is essential to help you obtain financial success, so we are focused on active listening and collaboration. The more we know about you, the better we understand your needs and what you want to accomplish by working with me & my team.
My approach to client service is simple – we put you at the center of everything we do. We recognize that getting to know you is essential to help you obtain financial success, so we are focused on active listening and collaboration. The more we know about you, the better we understand your needs and what you want to accomplish by working with me & my team.
Step 1: Introductions
We begin with an informal conversation. This is your opportunity to learn about us, as we get to know you. We’ll then schedule a more in-depth discussion in your home or our offices – whichever you prefer – and ask you to bring important financial documents.
Step 2: Discovery
We continue the dialogue by fostering an in-depth conversation where we learn about the values that shape your decisions, review the information you’ve prepared and define your priorities.
Step 3: Analysis
Next, we review your current and future financial situation, identify any potential shortfalls and discuss the impact of unexpected life events. In this step, we may also reach out to your CPA and estate attorney to understand any existing strategies, so we can coordinate our efforts into one cohesive plan.
Step 4: Plan Development
Here, we prepare a comprehensive financial plan that addresses your specific needs and goals. We utilize a number of financial planning tools to develop your plan, which will include investment recommendations, as well as appropriate wealth management strategies to consider.
Step 5: Presentation and Implementation
In this step, we present your plan and explain why we recommend each strategy. Once approved by you, we begin to implement the strategies. We believe in full transparency and will keep you involved each step of the way.
Step 6: Ongoing Service
We oversee your progress and regularly review the performance of your plan through ongoing calls and meetings. We may recommend adjustments over time, due to changing market conditions or changes in your personal circumstances, to help keep you on track towards achieving your goals.

4Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.

8An investment in an exchange-traded fund (ETF) involves risks similar to those of investing in a broadly based portfolio of equity securities traded on exchange in the relevant securities market, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The investment return and principal value of ETF investments will fluctuate, so that an investor’s ETF shares, if or when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of an exchange-traded fund (ETF) before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the ETF. To obtain a prospectus, contact your Financial Advisor or visit the ETF company’s website. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

18Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable or impact investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability and impact 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.

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.

22Structured Investments are complex and not appropriate for all investors. An investment in structured investments involves risks. These risks can include but are not limited to: fluctuations in the price, level or yield of underlying asset(s), interest rates, currency values and credit quality, substantial loss of principal, limits on participation in appreciation of underlying asset(s), limited liquidity, credit risk, and/or conflicts of interest. Many structured investments do not pay interest or guarantee a return above principal at maturity. Investors should read the security’s offering documentation prior to making an investment decision.
23Participating in a new issue/syndicate is subject to availability. IPOs are highly speculative and may not be appropriate for all investors because they lack a stock-trading history and usually involve smaller and newer companies that tend to have limited operating histories, less-experienced management teams, and fewer products or customers. Also, the offering price of an IPO reflects a negotiated estimate as to the value of the company, which may bear little relationship to the trading price of the securities, and it is not uncommon for the closing price of the shares shortly after the IPO to be well above or below the offering price.

4Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information.

8An investment in an exchange-traded fund (ETF) involves risks similar to those of investing in a broadly based portfolio of equity securities traded on exchange in the relevant securities market, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The investment return and principal value of ETF investments will fluctuate, so that an investor’s ETF shares, if or when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of an exchange-traded fund (ETF) before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the ETF. To obtain a prospectus, contact your Financial Advisor or visit the ETF company’s website.

18Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable or impact investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability and impact 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.
