What is a fiduciary? How is that different than other investment or retirement planners?

Fiduciaries are legal entities that are ethically and legally responsible to act in the best interest of the party they represent, in this case the investor. Fiduciaries who do not satisfy this legal obligation can be both criminally and civilly liable for their actions. The vast majority of financial planners and stock brokers are not fiduciaries.

In order to be certified as a fiduciary, there are additional applications and legal requirements that must be satisfied for financial planners. What it does mean is that we are obligated to show you every charge, fee, and movement of your money, with 100% transparency, and to back up our actions with justification. .

How much do your services cost?

We pride ourselves on a fee structure that’s as straightforward as it is fair. Our advisory fees are based on a percentage of assets we manage. This structure places us in a position to make more as your wealth grows, aligning our interests directly with the interests of our clients.

We recommend a minimum account size of $1,000,000 for new clients, however; this can be negotiated based on your individual financial situation.

What sets your firm apart from the competition?

Our clients are surrounded by a team of experts from day one. Not only do we provide comprehensive wealth management services, but our tax and insurance experts are on hand to ensure every aspect of your financial life is considered in the decision-making process. Our unique access to private investment opportunities and extensive knowledge of public markets, alongside the experience you would expect to shepherd your wealth, provides clarity and transparency into your financial life.
