FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes, we operate based on a fiduciary standard, meaning that we are bound by a legal obligation to act in your best interest at all times.

We manage our portfolios from a traditional long-term framework, focusing on timeless practices such as diversification, regular rebalancing, and strategic asset allocation. We reject the market-timing, day-trading philosophy. 

Think of us a being “on retainer”; you do not need to wait for your regular review meeting to reach out to us, ask questions, let us know about changes, etc. We are always happy to talk on the phone or answer emails as needed. With our large team of professionals, you can count on your questions being addressed in an accurate and timely manner.

Our first meeting is a chance for us to get to know you and you to get to know us.

This will include getting a picture of your current financial status. Things to bring that will help us in that include (but are not limited to):

• Investment account statements

•  Previous year’s tax return

• General retirement information

• General idea of current savings balances

• Mortgage statement

• Non-mortgage debt statements,

• Social Security statements or projections

• Income information

• Life insurance statements

• Long-term care statements

• Employee benefit information, including stock options or RSUs, etc.

We understand not all of these will apply, but generally speaking the more information you can gather and bring the better!
