Understanding you and your life

At Newtown Wealth Management, we’ve always believed that developing close, trusting relationships with our clients is the foundation for creating a solid financial plan together. We‘ve worked with some clients for over two decades, serving a diverse group of more than 350 multigenerational families, executives and business owners.

We understand that goals and priorities can vary, and our experience ranges from working with families saving for retirement to those selling their businesses—and everything in between. The fact that our services are anything but “one size fits all” is proof of our loyalty and commitment.
