Together, we are committed to managing your total financial situation, going beyond the single dimension of investments to integrate all of the pieces of your financial life.
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 and your family. Our job is to first understand what matters most to you. We will work together to create a financial approach that reflects your investment personality and is built around your life priorities. We will be here to help you make adjustments to your wealth management approach if and when necessary over time.
We help you allocate your investments through low cost, tax efficient portfolios that are regularly rebalanced.
Like many endowments and institutions, we believe in the appropriate use of alternative investments such as private equity and commercial real estate to potentially enhance returns and reduce volatility. We also actively employ tax minimization strategies for you, many times in collaboration with your tax professional.
*Some or all alternative investment programs may not be in the best interest of certain investors. No assurance can be given that any alternative investment’s investment objectives will be achieved.
The corporate executives we serve look to us to help simplify the increasing complexity of their financial lives. In addition to our wealth management process, we educate and offer advice on your suite of corporate benefits, including:
• Concentrated stock strategies
• Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) analysis
• Option award valuation
• Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation (NQDC)
• Employee Stock Purchase Plans (ESPP)
• Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA) analysis
We understand that the needs of every business owner are unique. In addition to our wealth management process, we advise and educate business owners in various ways, including:
• Working with the owner(s) to determine an intergenerational or external exit strategy
• Integrating the owner(s) equity and cash flow with a personal wealth management process
• Managing owner(s) liquidity during the sale or restructuring of the business
• Structuring corporate benefit plans
• Identifying insurance strategies for key employees
• Collaborating with Bank of America to address cash flow and lending needs
