Independent thinking. Insightful solutions. Private Wealth Management 
At The Mahoney Group, we are driven to be passionate students of the markets and have immersed ourselves in the analytics of investing for the last 30 years. To us, identifying smart solutions for our clients takes a meticulous investment acumen balanced with planning, “outside the box” thinking and looking for the right opportunities at the right time.
As an accomplished UBS Private Wealth Management team, we primarily guide a select group of private company founders and their families through the early preparation, long-term planning and management of their exit liquidity. While many have come to us for this knowledge, we view their business transition within the larger scope of a purpose-driven wealth and legacy plan. We integrate all goals into that plan—from estate planning, wealth transfer and philanthropic strategies to sustainable and socially responsible investing. Given significant level of success and sophistication of our clients, we believe they truly value our clear communication, dedication to relationships and most importantly, our independent approach to portfolio structuring and oversight.

A customized approach to portfolio construction
A truly customized portfolio should be informed by insights that align with your goals.
