SERVICES SECTION

Headline: Your dreams define our mission

Body Copy: You may want to save for retirement, or plan for your children’s college expenses. Maybe you just want better performance from your portfolio. Whatever the reason, we can help you achieve your financial dreams.

Headline: We take a holistic approach

Body Copy: We apply a disciplined, thorough methodology to determine the best way to manage your investments. We meet with you to discuss your income, assets and liabilities as well as any anticipated changes to your financial situation such as retirement, inheritance or illness. We also take the time to understand your risk tolerance, which can be influenced by many things: age, security of present employment, obligations, net worth, and cash flow plans. All these factors play a part in achieving your financial goals.

At the same time, you have an opportunity to learn about our investment philosophy, the tools and procedures we use, and performance results on accounts similar to what you would like to establish.

Headline: We create a personalized investment plan

Body Copy: After we evaluate your information, we create an investment plan designed to take you where you want to go. We perform an asset allocation analysis to help you balance your portfolio between equities, fixed income securities and other financial instruments. The right mix is determined by your preferences, performance goals and risk tolerance.

We can create discretionary accounts that allow us to act on your behalf based on your risk tolerance and the goals you have defined. Or we can set up a non-discretionary account so you will be contacted before any changes to your account are made. If you just need financial advice or planning, we also offer hourly consultations. You decide which account relationship best meets your needs.

Headline: We make investment management trouble-free

Body Copy: We make establishing your account as easy as possible. We help you complete the necessary paper work as well as review and evaluate any assets you wish to transfer to your managed account. We monitor the entire process to ensure that it flows smoothly, and that any questions or concerns you have are quickly addressed.

Once your account is established, we immediately begin monitoring your holdings as well as making trades and investment decisions in line with your financial situation and goals. In addition to monthly brokerage statements, you receive quarterly reports showing your account’s performance. And when you have questions, we are always available to discuss your account.
