5 Star Investment Advisory Services

Many financial professionals can talk to you about your investments. That’s not hard to find. But most financial professionals and personal retail accounts simply don’t have access to the investment resources our team has.

Each investment strategy and money manager added to our platform passes a strict set of criteria prior to approval including:

  • A track record of success against their peers
  • Top ranked performance over time
  • A semi-concentrated portfolio (i.e. their ‘best ideas’)
  • High active share (they are good at picking securities that outperform)
  • Tax friendly management (lower excess trading and turnover)
  • A fundamental, bottoms-up approach to investing (they have a keen understanding of exactly what they own and why)

When you’re saving money for retirement, the primary objective is generally growing your money. If that is your primary focus, we have powerful investment advisory services to assist you.

As you approach and transition into retirement, your objectives can easily become much more confusing. Generally, some money needs to be allocated for income and some for growth. Additionally, there are a myriad of other opportunities to consider. For example, how will you pay for long-term medical expenses such as a nursing home or assisted living. How will you minimize taxes and not run out of money. How will you preserve and protect your capital during down markets.

We can help you understand and define your financial goals and then create an investment portfolio around the various outcomes you would like to achieve. This approach can be radically different than saving or investing money through a 401(k) or 403(b) at work.

Our Institutional Partners

Clear upside and downside parameters with our investment advisory services

We’ve worked with hundreds of clients through up and down markets. This isn’t our first rodeo. During downturns, our phone doesn’t ring off the hook with worried clients. Instead, clients are proactively invested according to their timeline (short-term, mid-term, and long-term) and risk tolerance. During retirement, your investments must also match your income plan, which describes where and when you’ll pull retirement income.

Some clients are very conservative and want to preserve and protect their assets at all costs. Some clients are more aggressive and want to pursue market gains, even if they take on more risk. As fiduciaries, we work with you to position your investments according to the outcomes you would like to achieve.

We’re not here to push our agenda but rather to understand where you want to go and then give you a variety of investment or insurance solutions that may work for your specific situations.Our process is low-key, educational, and collaborative.

investment advisory services during retirement

While working, the primary goal with your investments is usually to accumulate retirement savings. As you transition into retirement, you may need to start spending your investments. This can be an emotionally difficult transition.

As we work with you, we help you to know where your income is coming from and when. Strategically, we draw down certain assets before others, often for the tax benefits. We’ve found that those who save diligently during their working years value a team to help them plan for vacations, time with grandchildren, and legacy planning.

investment advisory services transition from a 401k to an ira

Having worked with hundreds of families, many of them over multiple decades, we’ve found that a 401(k) simply doesn’t give most of our clients the necessary flexibility and choice they need through their retirement years. While a 401(k) is an excellent accumulation vehicle, an IRA opens up a myriad of planning and investment options that are simply not available in a 401(k).

Here are transitions when moving from a 401(k) to an IRA might be advisable:

  • When you leave a job or retire, consider transitioning your account to an IRA
  • While working, you may be able to do an in-service distribution from your 401(k)
