Source: Barron's.com (May 2024) 2024 Barron's Top 250 Private Wealth Management Teams awarded in 2024. The teams are ranked on a variety of factors, including their size and shape, their regulatory records and credentials of their members, and the resources they have at their disposal to serve their client bases. The rankings are meant as a starting point for clients looking for an advisor—a first-pass vetting that can help investors narrow a search. Every advisor will have his or her own approach to investing, financial planning, and other services. Clients are encouraged to approach a search for an advisor the way they would a search for a doctor—interviewing multiple professionals and getting opinions from multiple third parties. Rankings are based on the opinions of Barron's and this ranking may not be representative of any one client’s experience. This ranking is not indicative of the Financial Advisor’s future performance.

Approach

Discovery Process
Investing the time to learn about you and your family; your assets and liabilities and the risk exposures, enables us to formulate strategies and customize the relationship to your needs.
Formulation of Tax, Trust and Estate Strategy
Working with your tax and legal advisors, we help analyze your income and estate tax circumstances to identify and tailor planning techniques that may be used to address your objectives.
Creation of Customized Strategic Asset Allocation
Your customized asset allocation reflects risk, opportunities and taxation across multiple entities, while integrating your investing and estate plans.
Integration of Tactical Asset Allocation
Short-term adjustments seek to capitalize on temporary market distortions. Before making adjustments, we analyze the impact of taxes and trading costs on potential returns.
Implementation of a Customized Wealth Strategy
After comprehensive due diligence and analysis of expected results across multiple market scenarios, strategies are chosen from our expansive investment platform.
Ongoing Assessment
In coordination with your other advisors, we can conduct ongoing reviews and comprehensive reporting to ensure that your strategy adapts to changing financial and family needs.

Clients

We work with a select global clientele of highly sophisticated families and individuals, concentrating our resources to deliver high-touch service, customized solutions and institutional access to our entire Firm. Given their multinational orientation, our clients look to us for cross-jurisdictional advice as well as the ability to access global markets and manage currency exposures. They tell us that they value our sound and thoughtful financial advice and the excellent level of personal client service from the team.

Most of our clients have worked with us for many years and many for multiple generations. They include entrepreneurs who have recently sold their businesses and senior executives of public companies who hold concentrated stock positions. Given our institutional connectivity within Morgan Stanley, we also have a number of professional investor clients that include current and former hedge fund and private equity managers, and several prominent family offices. To varying extents, these clients typically require an institutional coverage approach.

Philosophy

Our clients deserve the best that Morgan Stanley has to offer. That begins with the full attention of our team and guided access to the best thinking and capabilities of Morgan Stanley’s global wealth management and investment professionals. It continues with attentive and responsive service delivered by our team’s highly experienced analysts and client service professionals.

Our clients deserve a comprehensive and cohesive plan to address the full spectrum of their wealth management needs. Coming from an investment culture, our first step in delivering on that promise includes global asset allocation, team level investing capabilities and access to our Firm’s leading practices in traditional and non-traditional investment consulting. We complement that core with wealth management experience in financial planning, tax and estate planning, insurance advisory, access to credit services, philanthropy, family advisory and succession guidance.

While we leverage our experience and learning across our clients, each relationship is different in goals, investment objectives, investment tolerance and other circumstances. So, we have no set business model. Instead, our wealth planning, asset allocation, investment strategy implementation and nature of on-going interaction are all tailored to the precise needs of each client.

1Investing 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.
