Merrill

Where do we begin? It starts with you.

At Merrill Lynch Wealth Management, your financial advisor focuses on the things you care about most- family, goals and priorities - even as they change over the years.

Understanding Your Life

Welcome

At Leverte Group Wealth Management, we strive to create an exceptional client experience, from wealth planning and strategy through investment management and service.

Speak to us for a few minutes, and you’ll notice something different. We’re resolutely focused on a client’s goals and continually strive to exceed expectations. We’re keenly attuned to what matters to you – your objectives and needs, values and priorities. Our work ethic and commitment are the best testimonials to our focus on you, your family, and your business.

In a financial world marked by change – we look to promote consistency, dispel confusion, and design a personalized path for each family. We have an instinct for solving problems, and look to continually refine and enhance what we do.

We’re proud of the fact that we’re restless in our quest to help you, harnessing our team’s complementary skills and strengths. Clients work with us from cities and towns in diverse parts of the United States as our advisor partners collaborate to serve as your “go-to resource,” whatever the financial issue or need.

Philosophy

We live in a world that’s constantly changing.

Markets fluctuate moment to moment. New investment opportunities arise daily. Regulations are amended often.

That’s why we believe that you and your situation are the best starting points from which to plan your financial future: where you are today, where you want to be tomorrow, and what you want to accomplish along the way. Because only by understanding you and your priorities, can we effectively offer our experience and resources and help you build a financial framework that is rooted in the unique complexities of your life.

Approach

Helping you pursue your goals starts with getting to know you and your family. We will work together to create a financial strategy that reflects your investment style and is built around your life plan. Our planning process can help you identify and prioritize your personal and professional financial goals, including education funding and retirement lifestyle. Potential strategies are offered to provide the “fit” that may best serve your objectives, risk tolerance, time horizon and liquidity needs. We help you understand fees and expenses associated with your accounts.

Understanding your goals and priorities

Your life and goals change. We have tools to help you keep track of these changes so they can be reflected in your financial approach.

Capabilities

Regarding your finances, it is important for you to know exactly where you are, where you want to go, and how much you may need to get there. We work together to develop a personalized financial strategy, providing access to the investment insights of Merrill and the banking convenience of Bank of America, to help you plan for your financial future. We provide transparency on potential risks and opportunities and what you’re paying for and what you’re getting. Understanding that life needs and market conditions can change, we will meet with you to help ensure your strategy stays on track in pursuing your goals and to adjust your approach as needed for the journey ahead.

Focus On Individuals, Families and Small Businesses

We believe that financial success can be achieved when you’re able to make investment-related decisions and trade-offs that can help you reach personally meaningful goals. Whether you’re planning your retirement, saving to buy a home or funding a child’s education, the process begins by getting to know you and how you feel about the following:

  • Health: Managing healthcare expenses, now and in the future
  • Home: Upsizing, downsizing, remodeling or buying a vacation home
  • Family: Taking care of your family and other people in your life
  • Leisure: Spending your free time in meaningful ways
  • Giving: Volunteering, mentoring others and giving to charities
  • Work: Working in retirement, selling or starting a business
  • Finance: Bringing it all together and defining your financial goals

Success will be measured by the amount of progress you are making toward reaching your goals, making thoughtfully considered adjustments as events and conditions warrant.
