Our Wealth Management Process
1. Discovery:
We start with you. Our relationship will begin with an in-depth conversation designed to help us understand who you are and analyze what is most important to you financially.
2. Development:
Ensuring we have a comprehensive understanding of our clients' financial, estate, legacy, and/or retirement plan is the foundation of our investment philosophy. If you do not have a plan, we will work with you and your tax and estate advisors to establish one so we can make the most conscious, well-informed investment recommendations.
3. Delivery:
We pride ourselves on delivering extraordinary service to our clients. This means listening intently and taking the time to educate you and your family, so each generation understands and is confident with the investment proposals we make.
4. Implementation:
Every client's financial goals are unique, which is reflected in the portfolios we construct specifically for you. Once we establish the financial, or retirement plan that is appropriate for you, we execute on the strategies discussed in a portfolio created to compliment that plan.
5. Maintenance
We'll meet regularly to help ensure our investment implementation stays in-line with your goals, risk tolerance and any upcoming changes. You'll receive monthly correspondence with timely market insights, team updates and seasonal reminders. Our support associates are dedicated to delivering world-class service through every interaction.
