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

Among the reasons our team chose to be part of the financial services industry is our desire to help others. This passion to help stems from our collective experience and the opportunity to collaborate one-on-one. As witnesses to the challenges faced by important people in our lives, we recognize the need for a professional and caring team to help you realize the life you want. Our purpose is to help you identify and address your goals, establish a personalized plan centered on your priorities, and then help you adjust your approach, as needed, whenever the inevitable changes in life may occur.

Philosophy

2. Communication is instrumental in managing life’s challenges. Our financial advisors, for example, can work to engage your family in the financial decision-making process. But communicating openly with family members on the sometimes-difficult topic of finances can be a challenge. We can help facilitate these discussions and offer opportunities to help educate the younger generation about how assets may be invested.

Approach

Wealth Management is a dynamic process. As we focus on you today and help you identify your goals for tomorrow, we can strive to work together throughout life’s ups, downs, triumphs, and transitions. Helping you pursue your goals starts with getting to know you, your family and developing a plan. Our job is to understand what matters most to you. We will work together to create a financial strategy that reflects your investment personality and is built around your life priorities. We will be here to help you make adjustments to your plan if and when necessary over time.

Capabilities

Years of experience working with clients through multiple market fluctuations have given us insight into how we may best help you pursue your goals. Working collaboratively, we can develop a personalized investment strategy specifically designed to pursue your lifestyle goals, no matter the financial environment. Your objectives, time horizon, liquidity needs, investment style and, perhaps most importantly, your sensitivity to risk will be taken into account. This can help ensure your financial strategy is aligned to what matters most to you.

Staying on Track

We understand that both your life and the financial markets can change over time. By checking in to discuss changes in your life and revisiting your financial approach, our goal is to help you stay on track to achieve what's most important to you.
