The hallmark of our wealth management process is a longstanding commitment to building customized solutions from the ground up. Our goals-based approach leads to strategies that are not only designed to help reach specific financial targets, but are reflective of who you are and how you intend to share your wealth with others.
Step 1: Introduction
We begin with an informal discussion to understand your financial concerns and determine how we can add value. If we all agree to move forward, we'll schedule our next meeting and request important financial information.
Step 2: Discovery
We continue the dialogue by fostering an in-depth conversation where we learn about the values that shape your decisions and identify any unique circumstances. We also review the documents you've prepared and define your priorities.
Step 3: Analysis & Plan Development
Here, we utilize proprietary financial planning tools to develop a personalized and detailed plan with recommendations to help you grow and preserve your wealth.
Step 4: Implementation
In this step, we present appropriate strategies that are designed to work together to help achieve your goals. Upon your approval, we initiate the investment recommendations and begin to implement the additional strategies we've discussed. These often encompass risk management and estate planning strategies.
Step 5: Ongoing Service
Committed to premium service, we focus on developing a relationship that can provide dedicated 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. And because markets and personal needs evolve over time, we set up ongoing meetings to help ensure your plan remains on schedule to achieve your goals.
Thanks to the unwavering commitment to helping clients and families achieve their investment goals, members of The 601 Group have earned the following industry awards and recognitions:

9Investing 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.
