At Morgan Stanley, we believe that understanding your financial situation, goals, objectives, and risk tolerance is crucial to identifying the right financial solutions for you. With a disciplined process, I work closely with you to create tailored solutions that meet your individual needs and align with your interests. My goal is to provide a clear roadmap focused on what matters most to you.
1. Introductory Call
Our relationship begins with an initial discussion aimed towards getting to know you, your lifestyle, and your future goals.
2: Discovery Meeting
We continue our dialogue to fully understand your personal, professional, and family situation so we can clarify your priorities and timelines.
3. Analysis & Plan Development
Here, we utilize proprietary financial planning tools to develop a personalized and detailed plan with recommendations to help you grow, preserve and transfer your wealth.
4. Implementation
We begin to implement the strategies outlined in the plan. Once assets have been transferred to Morgan Stanley and are aligned with your investment strategy, we walk you through your new statement and introduce all of the resources now available to you.
5: Monitoring & Performance Tracking
Committed to premium service, we focus on developing a relationship that provides special value to you and your family. As we begin to execute each strategy, we’ll set up tools so you have immediate access to your account information.
