The team is led by Kay Grasman: Kay is a credentialed Morgan Stanley Family Wealth Director and Portfolio Manager, and holds the Certified Financial Planner® designation.

Clients
Cross Border Services for International Executives and Their Families:
Many of our clients are foreign nationals living in the US or US citizens living abroad. For these individuals, life can get very complicated.
Take the executive who earns income here but maintains bank and investment accounts in his native country. Or the business owner with facilities in Europe and the US, not to mention rental income from multiple properties in various countries. Or maybe the executive who works for a global corporation in the US but is having a yacht built in his homeland and is concerned about currency risk.
Team Mondial has developed a network of experienced attorneys and accountants well versed in the income and estate tax laws of various countries to assist clients with their estate and tax planning needs. We work with those professionals to implement a comprehensive wealth management plan that provides the guidance to address complex financial and life decisions.
Philosophy
Asset Allocation
• Our investment philosophy is in part derived from MS Model Portfolio Solutions which is a compilation of "best ideas" of each analyst. Our team's tactical asset allocation, potentially enhances long term performance by taking advantage of temporary asset dislocation . Our portfolios are personalized based on clients needs and can be allocated across equities, fixed income, alternatives, real estate and currencies
Strategy Selection
• We use a top down approach by looking at macro trends in the economy and then drilling down to individual names
• We use a stock selection approach, where we identify specific industries where we see consistent growth and select unique companies that have strong business models and give back to shareholders • Dividend equities are an important component of our core holdings
Morgan Stanley Collaboration
• Morgan Stanley's extensive research division provides our team with equity and fix income recommendations which we can execute in the appropriate client portfolios
• As an adjunct to the MS research effort our group focuses on corporate events, such as balance sheet restructuring, consolidation in the industry spin-off, and merger and acquisitions
Disclaimers: Not all products and services are available in all jurisdictions or countries
Equity securities may fluctuate in response to news on companies, industries, market conditions and the general economic environment. Companies cannot assure or guarantee a certain rate of return or dividend yield; they can increase, decrease or totally eliminate their dividends without notice.
Asset Allocation and Diversification do not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.

1 Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, December, 2024
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.

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.
