Working With You
Goal Identification
During our initial meeting(s), we listen to you. We’ll help you identify what to improve, develop or change as it relates to your wealth. By reviewing your completed confidential client profile, we’ll be able to determine your risk tolerance. Your long-term financial goals and objectives will be identified to set the foundation of your wealth plan.
Plan Development
We’ll conduct a portfolio stress test on your current investments and review your current statements. Our goal is to ensure your financial goals and objectives are in line with your level of comfort in taking on risk so that we can design a personalized financial roadmap that best meets your needs.
Strategy Selection
Providing disciplined and transparent investment strategies are the foundation of our wealth management practice. Through education, we want to help you understand our investment process and strategies because these important financial decisions directly impact your life. Once you have a thorough understanding, we’ll make recommendations on strategy allocations and implement your personalized plan so you can live your life by design, not by default.
Transparent Communication
Once your plan is set in motion, you’ll define how we communicate with you – phone, email, mailings or in-person – but you can expect us to deliver proactive, transparent communications and unparalleled service. We’ll schedule annual reviews to ensure your financial goals and objectives remain current.

11Investing 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. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.
