Our process
The first step in our wealth management process is to identify a client’s financial needs and set goals by getting to know them. We carefully listen to their objectives and ask the necessary questions to identify specific needs, opportunities, expectations, desires, fears and concerns. We consider their tax situation, liquidity needs and risk tolerance to tailor a plan suited to help them achieve their financial objectives.
Beyond a client’s financial needs, we also consider their life plan. Special circumstances, family needs, health issues, priorities and preferences that shape their life become an integral part of the recommended strategy.
Next, we develop a customized portfolio to complement the client’s overall wealth management plan, incorporating our strategy to seek to minimize risk while carefully selecting goal- and risk-appropriate investments. We have access to an extensive platform of resources and high-quality investments to provide options that fit their goals and wealth plan, investment time frame, risk tolerance, priorities and preferences.
Finally, we periodically review their plan and re-evaluate their needs, based on life changes, market movement and economic factors. We meet with them to discuss any life changes or overall objectives and adjust the portfolio as necessary to help them stay on track.
