Our 4-step approach to Wealth Management is formal, yet flexible. Over time, we can adapt to changing circumstances while helping you achieve—and protect—your goals.
Step 1: Discover
Our relationship begins with a thorough understanding of you - your needs, your lifestyle and family, and your goals for the future. We learn about the values that shape your decisions and identify unique circumstances.
Step 2: Create
In this step, we utilize proprietary financial planning tools to develop a personalized and detailed plan to help you achieve and protect the outcomes you envision.
Step 3: Act
Here, we’ll present a comprehensive set of recommendations designed to achieve your goals. Upon your approval, we’ll set into motion a course of action that strives to align your investments with your values and vision.
Step 4: Adjust
Achieving your goals requires vigilance and flexibility. We will help you monitor your progress and make adjustments as life evolves, markets and tax laws shift, and priority changes.
Business Owners & Executives
Managing family wealth is like running a company—you need a strategy to help manage assets and mitigate risks. Bridging the gap between individual wealth and investment management services, we work with owners and founders striving to accelerate growth and develop comprehensive succession plans. We can help you navigate the process by leveraging some of the top research and investment management resources in the industry backed by the resources of Morgan Stanley
Transaction of a Lifetime
Creating and growing a successful business is seldom just about money, nor is the decision to exit the business. Whether that exit is through IPO, merger with another company, private sale, or succession within the family, the process is intense, the details are complex, and the decisions are often an unexpected combination of personal and financial needs. Morgan Stanley has been helping business owners like you bring clarity and confidence to what is typically a once-in-a-lifetime event.
The Transaction of a Lifetime
Planning for the Unplanned
Events such as death, disability, or retirement of a business owner don't have to mean the end of a successful business. Succession planning can provide for an orderly transition of ownership and business management during lifetime or at death. There are various options for structing and funding buy-sell agreements, key employee needs, and other executive benefits programs.
Morgan Stanley at Work
Our mission is to help your company elevate your workplace financial benefits—helping you to attract and retain top talent. Our end-to-end solutions support your company and employees at any stage of growth through a powerful combination of modern technology, insightful guidance, and dedicated service.
