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

The Dineen & Halabi Group

We’re dedicated to help managing and preserving wealth, in order to meet all of a client’s goals, and to formulate strategies that will pass this wealth on to the next generation as efficiently as possible. To that end, we will explore multiple asset allocation strategies to arrive at the approach that’s most comfortable for you, while being consistent with your long-term goals. We will regularly track and make adjustments over time to fit any changes in your personal circumstances.

Our professional knowledge encompasses:

  • Wealth Planning
  • Retirement Planning
  • Investment Planning
  • Family-Held Business Transition
  • Restricted Stock Ownership
  • Risk Management 

Who We Work With

High-net-worth families, individuals, and business owners who are open to new ideas and want a global perspective to their investments, wealth planning, and risk management. As a client, you can expect proactive investment management & wealth planning, supported by a superior level of service at all times. 

We’ll begin by getting to know you as we explore the following seven priorities together:

  • 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
We work closely with other trusted professionals in your life, in order to help clients pursue their goals.

What We Offer

An institutional approach to investment, wealth planning, and risk management coupled with the personal service from a dedicated team with 44 years of combined experience. Recognizing that markets, products, and services continually change, we set a high standard when it comes to training and continuing education. This commitment to stay current helps us provide you with the experience and insight needed to guide you through the complexities of preparing for retirement, growing a business, developing strategies for transferring wealth to the next generation, or any other aspect of your life which may need to be addressed.

Philosophy

It’s important to plan for your financial future, which means getting more than investment advice. You may find value in a one-on-one relationship with someone dedicated to knowing who you are and what you want to accomplish. Someone who knows your children’s names, how hard you worked to get where you are and how you view investing. Our commitment is centered on helping you achieve your goals by making your needs a priority. Our advice and financial planning approach are guided by what’s important to you.

Approach

An effective approach to wealth management requires working closely with you to help identify and define your goals. The process begins by understanding what matters most to you. We help create a financial strategy to pursue your goals that reflects your investment style and is built around your life plan.

Whether you are focused on growing, preserving or transferring wealth the team is committed to helping you address your financial goals at every stage of your life.

Your approach to investing

Drawing upon research in the field of behavioral finance, Merrill developed the Investment Personality Assessment to help us get to know you better as an investor and potentially help you refine your own investing preferences. By gaining a deeper understanding of how you think and feel about investing through this assessment, we can customize the financial approach we develop together to help you pursue what matters most to you. Our Investment Personality Assessment is one of the ways to help us get to know you - to understand your goals and priorities. These questions will help us provide you with additional insights and resources.

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

Our financial planning process begins by getting to know you and understanding your goals. We can collaborate so the team can gain a comprehensive understanding of your goals, what you value most, including your risk tolerance, time horizon, and liquidity needs. One-on-one discovery meetings with you draw on the analytical skills and deep experience of the team to review your portfolio and objectives so that we can work closely together to create a personalized plan to help you pursue your goals.

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.



Reviews to help you
stay on track

We’ll meet with you to review your goals and the progress you’ve made toward reaching them. We’ll also discuss any adjustments needed to your financial approach to help you stay on course.
