Seth Albeck is a Senior Wealth Strategy Associate at UBS Financial Services. He began his career in 2010 when he joined the Maxim Group LLC in an advisory role. Seth quickly realized that his passion was to be able to help clients map their investments to align with their short and long term goals. In 2012, he joined The Argus Group whose planning based investment approach, of having clients identify their financial goals and building an investment portfolio to achieve those goals, matched that of his own.

Seth works in conjunction with Robert Ryan and Hannah Doherty in helping clients by focusing on learning about what is important to them today and their future, creating a personalized financial plan, illustrating the clients’ current probability of achieving their future financial aspirations, and advising them on ways to bridge the gap between their current needs and future goals.

One of his primary focuses is constructing investment portfolios with Robert Ryan and Hannah Doherty that align with the client’s financial plan and their goals. The main emphasis being on clients not taking any additional risk than is necessary and helping them to implement the portfolio in the most tax-efficient manner.
