Understanding you and your family
Our approach begins with a full understanding of your vision for the future, whether you are navigating life’s important decisions, managing a business transition or planning your legacy.
Tax-advantaged strategies
Whether you are developing a business succession strategy, managing a large liquidity event, planning your estate or building your legacy, our team can work with you and your tax and legal advisors to develop tax-advantaged solutions.
Retirement income planning
Your wealth is like an endowment for your future. Our team will work with you to help protect your lifestyle and livelihood in retirement and help you understand such influences as risk, investment time horizon and the right asset allocation.
Estate and legacy planning strategies
We have the experience and the network to address the complexities of your estate and philanthropic needs. We can help with protecting your assets, reducing estate tax exposure, transitioning wealth to future generations and pursuing philanthropic endeavors.
Insurance consulting and review
We view insurance as a tool to protect your family’s assets, replace income, and create a legacy for future generations and philanthropic beneficiaries. We objectively analyze all your current policies to determine whether they meet the needs of your long-term planning.
Tangible results from a disciplined
investment strategy
The foundation of our investment strategies comes from the expertise of both internal and external sources, combined in an integrated and systematic process. We help ensure you are prepared for opportunities and protected in times of market turbulence.
Appropriate asset allocation and risk management is tailored to your unique situation. The result is a complete understanding of your priorities that helps us provide tangible results.
Open access and objective analysis
We provide access to an open platform of premium financial solutions both within and outside of UBS. This open architecture, along with a disciplined process, ensures we develop customized strategies based on a highly focused analysis.
A disciplined process focused on asset allocation
Through our comprehensive due diligence and planning process, we can determine your family’s goals, growth and income needs, and tolerance for risk. This allows us to craft an asset allocation that maintains an opportunistic eye toward investments and changes in the market.
Risk management
By listening to and aligning with your objectives, we focus on strategies that help mitigate risk and build balanced portfolios. As we implement your investment strategy, we communicate regularly and track performance, rebalancing and making adjustments for life changes and economic conditions.

Attuned to protecting the financial independence of your entire family, we can help structure a deliberate and meaningful family legacy and direct capital to reflect your values.

Guidance for navigating life’s transitions
Facing a significant liquidity event, the uncertainty and stress of divorce or the loss of a loved one, you need a knowledgeable and experienced ally on your side to help evaluate options, help you make important financial decisions and achieve the results you deserve.
We can help you make smarter decisions when navigating significant life events and financial transitions.
Pre- and post-liquidity planning
By listening to and aligning with your objectives, we focus on liquidity and asset management strategies that allow for sustainable growth and help mitigate risk.
Facing divorce
Better insights mean better results for you. Our team brings years of experience and sophisticated financial insights to help guide you through each critical decision you face before, during and after your divorce.
The loss of a loved one
In many relationships, financial decisions are often made primarily by one partner. With a loss, this frequently results in one of the parties being left uninformed, uncertain and anxious. We offer financial guidance for the next phase of your life.
For the next generation
Whether planning a wedding, funding college or providing for your children and grandchildren, we can help ensure your assets are preserved and transferred to future generations in a tax-efficient manner.
