Our Process

The personal relationship we have with every client starts with an initial consultation in which we identify your needs, objectives, and risk tolerances.  Once we have this understanding, we develop a custom plan. We identify your goals, gather and review financial data, and coordinate our investment process with other tools for financial growth and stability.

When we have established your objectives, we create an asset allocation plan. You will receive a personalized asset allocation plan, outlining strategies and investment parameters that fit with your goals and objectives. We review this plan with you, taking care to ensure that you understand every aspect, and that you are comfortable with our recommendations.

When you have approved our plan, we put it to work for you. We monitor its progress regularly, and we customize your review schedule based on your needs—at least once a year, and more often as appropriate. Between meetings, you can expect prompt attention to any requests you make for service from our associates and staff.

Clients ask us, “How often do you look at my account?” We look at your account on a regular basis—at least weekly, and more often when markets are volatile. We monitor your investments, asset allocation, and account performance on a regular basis.  This monitoring process goes on year-round, and we communicate with you regularly when we see the need to make changes to meet your needs.
