About us

As wealth grows, so does financial complexity. At CD Emerson Wealth Management, we advise successful individuals and families, entrepreneurs, business owners, and multigenerational families with sophisticated wealth management needs. Backed by the global resources of UBS, we integrate investment management, estate and tax planning, lending, investment banking, and philanthropy into a cohesive wealth management framework.

Whether preparing for a business transition, navigating a liquidity event, or stewarding multigenerational wealth, we construct diversified portfolios across public and private markets, drawing on institutional-caliber resources and incorporating equities, fixed income, private equity, hedge funds, real estate, infrastructure, and cash management solutions.

Our approach brings discipline, clarity, and coordination to complex financial decisions. Every strategy is evaluated in the context of our clients' broader objectives and overall financial circumstances.
