About Ifan Wei

After Plano Senior High School, I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley where I earned a Bachelor’s in Business Administration. My Haas coursework initially sparked my interest in the equities market. This interest led me to starting my finance career on a trade desk. The 10 years I spent actively trading the market and then teaching other traders led me to my next passion: coaching and mentoring. As a financial advisor, I am able to combine these skills to help others define, plan and achieve their financial goals.

At Cal, I was on the boxing team and received All-American honors my senior year. In my spare time, I still train and spend most evenings at the gym. I also enjoy cooking for my fiancé, playing chess, and taking my orange tabby on daily walks

1Structured Investments are complex and not appropriate for all investors. An investment in structured investments involves risks. These risks can include but are not limited to: fluctuations in the price, level or yield of underlying asset(s), interest rates, currency values and credit quality, substantial loss of principal, limits on participation in appreciation of underlying asset(s), limited liquidity, credit risk, and/or conflicts of interest. Many structured investments do not pay interest or guarantee a return above principal at maturity. Investors should read the security’s offering documentation prior to making an investment decision.

3Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
