WORKING WITH YOU: MY SIX-STEP PROCESS
To create a comprehensive, goals-based wealth management plan for each client, we follow a rigorous yet flexible six-step process.
Step 1: Introductory Meeting
We begin with an initial conversation to learn more about you, define what's important to you and understand your overall future goals.
Step 2: Discovery Meeting
While every client situation is unique, we begin by learning about you, your family and your financial complexities. This step allows us to formulate specific strategies, and to customize the entire relationship.
Step 3: Formulation of Your Tax, Trust and Estate Strategy
After reviewing your balance sheet and existing estate plan, we help analyze your income and estate tax circumstances to identify planning techniques that may be effectively tailored to your personal and financial objectives. We work closely with your tax and legal advisors during this step and on an ongoing basis.
Step 4: Financial Plan Presentation
We then present a refined financial plan tailored to you using a holistic approach by factoring in tax, legal and risk considerations. This road map helps us to identify opportunities to enhance your existing financial affairs so that you live the best life possible while preserving your legacy.
Step 5: Implementation of a Customized Wealth Strategy
After comprehensive due-diligence and extensive analysis of expected results across a range of scenarios, investment strategies from our global investment platform can be leveraged to create your portfolio. This process can help create the most efficient balance of risk and return for your specific strategy.
Step 6: Ongoing Assessment of Your Family's Wealth Management Needs
Coordinating with you and your other advisors, we can conduct ongoing reviews and comprehensive reporting to help ensure that your strategy adapts to changing financial and family needs.
