Our Core Values
Our core values shape the structure of our practice:
Prudent Judgment
Creating and helping you manage intergenerational wealth is a profound responsibility that requires prudent judgment.
We seek to help our clients by:
- Providing unbiased, honest guidance;
- Mitigating downside risk; and
- Seeking out the facts before we offer an opinion.
Knowledge
Our job is to stay knowledgeable in an ever-changing market landscape and educate you on the wealth management concepts you want to learn and we believe are important.
During our consultative process, we will:
- Communicate the difference between what is appropriate versus what is popular at the moment;
- Take the time to explain the markets and your investments in simple language; and
- Create realistic expectations during market fluctuations.
Credibility
We strive for trustworthiness and honesty in every aspect of our practice by:
- Fully disclosing the risks and value (including fees) of investment programs and strategies;
- Maintaining confidentiality regarding personal and business matters; and
- Remaining objective and putting your interests first.
Innovation
A key element to maintaining a high standard of service is our ability to be innovative and creative.
We deliver innovation by:
- Providing comprehensive products and services, not cookie-cutter solutions;
- Combining a human touch with technological insights; and
- Using the most advanced tools available.
Value
You should expect more for your money. And we strive to deliver a service that meets and exceeds your expectations.
Our value is created by:
- Developing and implementing strategies designed to create and mitigate risk to your intergenerational wealth;
- Working closely with your tax, legal, and other professionals as agreed to by you; and
- Taking into consideration which service model we reasonably believe to be in your best interest, whether it's fee-based through advisory services or transactional through brokerage services.
