Our practice offers the intimacy of a boutique, coupled with the resources of one of the premier investment firms in the world. We help high net worth clients and institutions navigate the noise that purveys Wall Street and build customized investments strategies within the context of each client s goals, objectives and risk tolerance. Together, we will explore a broad range of topics that are likely to influence your financial future from your family situation to your career aspirations, from likely education expenses to the retirement you ultimately envision. What we learn will become the foundation for a financial and investment strategy based on who you are and where you want to go. Only then will we talk with you about the details of investing: how much risk makes sense, your asset allocation, and which investments are right for your portfolio.

Working with you, we will complete a four-step process: 1 Setting your financial objectives We will begin our relationship by listening discussing a range of topics related to your financial needs and investment objectives: long-term life goals and expectations, possible major purchases, and legacy and charitable goals, if you have them. We will discuss your current financial resources, your time horizon for various goals, your tolerance for risk even how your liabilities are structured. If you own a business, we also might discuss your current banking and cash management needs. 2 Developing your wealth management strategy Based on your input, our advice will likely help address income and retirement planning, asset protection, investment management, strategic borrowing, wealth transfer and business succession.
