The BMV Group was formed in the late 1990’s, as John Byren, Daniel Madonia and Pieter van der Heide merged their individual Merrill Lynch Wealth Management practices into one in order to provide a greater standard of service and guidance as their clients’ needs began to change. Over 20 years later, The BMV Group remains at Merrill Lynch Wealth Management, and is now comprised of 4 Wealth Management Advisors, 3 Client Associates and a 1 Business Management Analyst with almost 150 combined years of experience to reference. The BMV mission is simple: Provide valuable and insightful guidance to our clients, identify any risks to their ongoing strategies, and protect their individual goals and objectives. Our clients often include:
- Affluent Individuals and families
- Entrepreneurs and owners of closely held companies
- Sports and Entertainment Professionals
- Individuals and Families navigating major financial events such as business sale, divorce, loss of a spouse, retirement
While the BMV mission is simple, our process requires discipline and a thorough review of the many aspects of our clients’ financial lives. We review our clients using our “Essential 10”, areas that every client, at a minimum, should address. These areas include:
- Investment Portfolio Risk Assessment
- Family Protection and Insurance Review
- Family Communication, Governance, and Dynamics
- Banking Efficiency
- Liability Efficiency (Personal and Business)
- Education Planning Strategies
- Retirement Cash Flow Projections
- Advisor collaboration – CPA, Attorney
- Philanthropy and Gifting Strategies
- Estate Planning Services and Transition Strategies
We are committed to providing valuable and appropriate strategies to protect our clients’ goals. We uphold a standard of service and professionalism that is unmatched, continuing to obtain advanced credentials in an evolving financial landscape, and remaining a resource for our clients regardless of where their travels or goals take them. We are grateful for the close relationships we have established over the last several decades, and plan on serving these relationships for many, many years to come.
We focus on a select group of clients—corporate executives, business owners and wealthy individuals and their families—and make it a priority to tailor our services to their specific needs.
Our range of wealth management services goes beyond investments. For businesses and business owners, we offer employee retirement plan administrative services, including 401(k)s, and also offer access to Bank of America credit and lending services. For individuals and families and through Bank of America, we help with wealth transfer, trust and estate planning services, liability management, including home equity and other financing.
"We are pleased that a high percentage of the clients we serve are referrals from others. We take that as a sign that we are delivering on the faith we believe they put in the BMV Group."
Merrill is proud of our advisors who’ve received recognition from financial industry publications or directly from Bank of America Corporation. We believe they are setting the standard for exemplary client service.
