Our Goals-Based Process
Our process takes a comprehensive view of your life. In our initial conversations, we talk about your family and personal aspirations. We learn about the hopes and dreams you have for your future and the legacy you’d like to leave.
What we discover together becomes the foundation for a detailed financial plan that is based on who you are and where you want to go. Over time, we regularly review and revise your financial plan to reflect new priorities in your life and changes in the marketplace.

1: Discovery & Goal Setting
We begin with an in-depth conversation to understand what is important to you, your family and your legacy. We learn about the values that shape your decisions and identify any circumstances unique to your personal situation. We collect important financial information and identify your top priorities.
2: Analysis & Strategy Development
Here, we conduct a detailed analysis of your financial situation using various financial planning and risk analysis tools. We then develop a detailed financial plan with recommendations to help you effectively build, preserve and transfer your wealth. This analysis serves as the foundation for your initial plan, as well as future wealth management decisions.
3: Financial Plan Presentation
In this step, we present your plan in detail, which includes recommendations to make your life better. These may include changes to your asset allocation and investment strategy, as well as advice on particularly complex issues, such as estate planning and tax minimization strategies. Once we’ve discussed and refined your plan, we identify the specific investments to support the recommendations we presented.
4: Implementation
Upon your approval, we’ll begin to implement the strategies outlined in your plan. Once your assets have been transferred to Morgan Stanley and are aligned with your investment strategy, we walk you through the details of your new statement and introduce all the new tools and resources now available to you.
5: Ongoing Service
Milestones like buying and selling a home, retirement, or starting or selling a business can all have a significant impact on your overall wealth. We monitor progress towards each goal, adjusting your financial plan accordingly as changes in your life occur.

• Asset Growth & Preservation

Understanding Your Savings Vehicles
When it comes to retirement savings, the most important thing is to get started - after all, time is one of your greatest assets. Although retirement may seem far for some, it is essential to get started on planning for future living expenses, potential education funds, or travel costs. Let us help you educate on ways to grow and preserve your wealth.

Risk Management
Comprehensive risk estimation and reporting across a broad range of asset classes and security types, providing both an overview and a detailed view to better enable risk to be effectively monitored and managed.
Portfolio risk management
Intelligent Withdrawals
Building wealth is a means to an end. Taxes can eat up a significant portion of your assets upon withdrawal. This is why it's vital to look at your entire portfolio and coordinate liquidation to help reduce the impact of taxes and potentially improve investment results.
Tax-efficient StrategiesMaking a Difference through Personal Investments
Investors of all demographics are seeking meaningful ways to create positive economic, social, and environmental impact through the investments they make in their portfolio. This is often referred to as “Sustainable Investing,” “Investing with Impact” or “Socially-Responsible Investing.” This discipline aims to align financial goals, which are driven by economic fundamentals, with impact goals, which are driven by personal values and mission.
At The Brewer Group, we have cultivated the knowledge, strategies and tools needed to integrate sustainable investing themes across your entire portfolio or into select allocations. We are here to answer any questions you may have and to help you make appropriate decisions.

1Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is the trade name of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, a registered broker-dealer in the United States.
For more information, please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Client Relationship Summary.
2Morgan Stanley offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you. Please consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences or review our Understanding Your Brokerage and Investment Advisory Relationships brochure available at www.morganstanley.com/wealth-relationshipwithms/pdfs/understandingyourrelationship.pdf.
3Morgan Stanley’s investment advisory programs may require a minimum asset level and, depending on your specific investment objectives and financial position, may not be appropriate for you. Please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC program disclosure brochure (the “Morgan Stanley ADV”) for more information in the investment advisory programs available. The Morgan Stanley ADV is available at www.morganstanley.com/ADV.
4When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.
5Alternative Investments are speculative and include a high degree of risk. An investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his/her investment. Alternative investments are appropriate only for qualified, long-term investors who are willing to forgo liquidity and put capital at risk for an indefinite period of time.
6Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (“Morgan Stanley”), its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors do not provide tax or legal advice. Clients should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning and other legal matters.

8Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC is a registered Broker/Dealer, Member SIPC, and not a bank. Where appropriate, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC has entered into arrangements with banks and other third parties to assist in offering certain banking related products and services.

10The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) aware investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because ESG 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.
