Formed in 2005, The DePiero-Aidner Group at Merrill Lynch Wealth Management provides comprehensive financial advice to individuals, business owners, and executives. We apply a consistent process that addresses our clients’ individual needs.
The DePiero-Aidner Group
Welcome
Our mission is to understand you and what matters most to you. To take the time, to ask hard, smart questions and to listen carefully, then to understand, in great detail, exactly where your wealth stands today, and where you’d like it to be tomorrow. We help you design and implement a customized wealth management approach that helps you and your family pursue your personal financial goals while helping manage investment risk. Our wealth management approach is about using wealth to help turn goals into reality.
Philosophy
No two people are alike. Consequently, there is no single wealth management approach that is appropriate for everyone. What matters most to us is what matters most to you. Once we get to know you, your priorities, your goals, risk tolerance, time horizons, liquidity needs and what you want to accomplish over time, only then can we help you position yourself to identify and address financial challenges and potential opportunities. To that end, we will thoughtfully employ our experience and resources to help guide you as you pursue your goals.
Capabilities
Using the broad investing resources of Merrill, we can also assist with potential solutions for income management, education funding, retirement income planning, and guidance for executives with concentrated stock positions, traditional and alternative investments, wealth transfer and estate planning services. And with your permission we can also work closely with your other professionals, such as attorneys, accountants and specialists, to help you pursue your goals.
DISCLOSURE: Some or all alternative investments may not be appropriate for certain investors. Certain alternative investments carry significant risk and are not subject to the same regulatory oversight as mutual funds and other appropriate investments. For these reasons, access to alternative investments may be limited to investors who are designated as sophisticated, high-net-worth investors.
Focus On High-Net-Worth Individuals and Business Owners
We offer clients a breadth of potential solutions, premier customer service and financial tools based on their unique circumstances.
No matter what your goals may be, we begin by helping you define and prioritize your financial goals based on the following seven areas:
- 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 and giving to charities
- Work: Working in retirement, selling or starting a business
- Finance: Bringing it all together; defining your financial goals
- Potential risk management solutions
- Trust and estate planning services
- Potential wealth management solutions
- Access to Bank of America for your credit and banking needs
Recognition
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.
