Our Job
As families accumulate wealth, they generally start to build a team of advisors…a CPA to help with taxes, a broker to help with investments, an attorney to draft estate documents, an insurance agent to help with risk management. However, a common problem we see is that none of the advisors have the all-important job of integrating the various technical disciplines, of managing the big picture, and of driving the agenda. We rarely see wealthy families having a CFO of their growing personal wealth business. That’s what we do. As our clients’ advocates and fiduciaries, we help clients capture the benefits of integrated wealth management and coordinate the entire personal financial process.
Our clients appreciate that we understand their objectives, both financial and non-financial. They appreciate our expertise across the entire wealth management spectrum, not just in one discipline. They appreciate the reliability of us as their central point of contact. They appreciate that while their situation may be complicated, we make things simple for them to live with. These factors create a feeling of confidence that their goals are secure; their decisions are sound; they are good stewards of their wealth; and, if contingencies do occur, that we will keep their plans on track.
In summary, our job is to do the things you would do yourself, if you had the time, experience, and desire to make the management of your wealth a full-time job.

By: Matt Garrott Saying the market hates uncertainty is cliché because uncertainty is the only constant in the market. Otherwise there would be no risk and returns would be miniscule. Lately, though, there have been three sources of outsized uncertainty: US/China trade, Brexit, and the Federal Reserve. October [...]
Skeptical Investing
By: Matt Garrott The S&P 500 is up over 20% through September 30th. Real estate is up almost 28%. Even the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index is up over 8%. Unemployment is incredibly low at 3.7% and wage growth is picking up. Inflation is tame at under 2%. The [...]
The Biggest Risk as of August 2019
By: Matt Garrott Midway through August nearly every media outlet posted a RECESSION headline. Even the Cleveland Plain Dealer ran a front-page story. The yield curve had inverted (the yield on shorter maturity bonds was higher than longer maturities), leading some to jump to the conclusion that a [...]
Soylent Rate Cut
By: Matt Garrott With a trade war, the Fed’s rate cut, and election season ramping up (none of the challengers will say anything positive about the economy), you may be forgiven for thinking the investing environment is in shambles. However, even after the rough past week, the S&P [...]
