Our 5 Step Process

Discovery

During our discovery process, we focus on what is most important to you, both financially and personally. Together, we will define what financial success means to you and translate this into prioritized goals.

Analysis

For us to thoroughly understand your situation, we will take a comprehensive inventory of your current financial position. We also analyze the effectiveness, composition, and expenses of your existing situation. By reviewing specific items for action, we can make sure that your goals and financial situation are aligned.

Development

Based on the analysis, we will develop a long-term wealth plan to get you from today to where you want to be. Throughout this process, we will address any items that need clarification and adjust based on new or additional information.

Implementation

The next step is the implementation of your plan. In addition to creating your investment portfolio, we also work with a team of financial professionals to address the non-investment action items we’ve identified. You will receive an Investment Policy Statement which documents our findings and agreement, assigning responsibly and accountability.

Monitoring

The discovery process is part of our ongoing meetings to ensure that your plan reflects your goals. We will monitor your plan closely and provide you with clear and concise reporting. Through periodic portfolio rebalancing, we will make sure your investments maintain its target allocation, helping control your level of risk and minimize emotional decision making.
