1. Introductory Call
We begin with an informal conversation to understand your financial concerns and determine how we can add value. If we all agree to move forward, we’ll schedule our next meeting and request important financial information.
2. Discovery
We continue the dialogue we started, learning about the values that shape your decisions and identifying any unique circumstances around your wealth. We review the documents you prepared and begin to define your priorities and timelines.
3. Analysis and Plan Development
Here, we utilize industry-leading financial planning tools to develop a personalized and detailed financial plan with specific recommendations to help you grow and preserve your wealth. This serves as the foundation for building your initial plan, as well as future wealth management decisions.
4. Plan Presentation
In this step, we will present your financial plan that includes an investment portfolio that aligns your investments with your goals, timeframe, and risk level. We also discuss other wealth management solutions that may include risk management techniques.
5. Implementation
Upon your approval of my recommendations, we begin to implement the strategies outlines in the plan. Once assets have been transferred to Morgan Stanley and are aligned with your investment strategy, walk you through the details of your new statement and introduce all of the tools and recourses available to you.
6. Continued Service and Care
Committed to premium service, we focus on developing a relationship that provides special value to you and your family. As we begin to implement each strategy, we also want to continue to provide top tier attention to stay on top of those financial objectives and maintain a strong relationship with you.
