Financial clarity

What do you want to accomplish with your wealth?

Our financial planning approach seeks to understand your individual needs and ensure that your financial decisions reflect both short term desires and long term goals. We have the answers you need for your most important planning questions.

Does a financial plan cover more than my investments?
Yes. When we build a comprehensive financial plan, we start by listening and learning about you. Our goals-based approach to planning can help you see the connections between all aspects of your financial life, including insurance and liability, banking, lending, trust and estate, and philanthropy.

Will my family be protected and prepared for the future?
We look at all the areas of your life—everything from retirement planning to education funding, supporting aging parents and caring for a special needs child. We are keenly attuned to protecting the financial independence of your entire family, structuring a deliberate and meaningful legacy and directing capital to reflect your values. Just as important, we focus on education for each generation. With open and free access to educational programs, seminars and one-on-one discussions, we’ll help each member of your family fully understand how financial decisions impact their lives. From understanding the financial markets to paying for college to charitable and estate planning, we’ll help make sure you get the answers that are most important to your family.

What about estate planning and the impact on my taxes?
If maximizing what you pass on to your heirs is a consideration, we offer strategies that are essential to your unique situation. By working with your tax and legal professionals, we can take measures that may help minimize the impact of taxes.

What are the best strategies for reaching your goals?

Once we’ve helped you define your financial and life goals, our team provides investment strategies tailored to your needs. With direct access to the global resources of UBS, we offer timely perspectives, customized investment management and a fully integrated suite of financial solutions.

Can my portfolio withstand market volatility?
We understand how today’s uncertain economy is the cause of a lot of anxiety. We help demystify investments by being straight-forward and clear about how we’re handling your money. As discretionary portfolio managers within UBS’s Portfolio Management Program (PMP) or by working with select money managers, we work with you to build custom portfolios. Ongoing monitoring and review helps us track your investments and quickly adapt to changes in the markets or in your life.

What does risk mean to me?
First and foremost, we are dedicated to preserving all you have worked so hard to build. Through our comprehensive due diligence and planning process, we gain an understanding of your financial picture so we help balance your tolerance for risk with your goals, growth and income needs. This allows us to craft an asset allocation that supports your financial plan and seeks to limit risk.

What’s really important to you—today and for the long term?
