Wealth & Business Planning

A team dedicated to achieving your goals

We’re dedicated to helping you navigate life’s changes and implement sound financial solutions. We have several specialized teams to guide you through the complexities of financial planning to achieve your goals. After getting to know you and understanding your situation and goals, we’ll craft a plan tailored specifically for you and your family.

Identifying your goals

Planning helps you and your family define your goals, act decisively and confidently and track your progress. Our Wealth Planning Group supports a client-centered, advice-based culture. We focus on providing planning expertise for highly complex issues and strategies, including advanced planning techniques and business succession planning.

We conduct several consultations to obtain an in-depth perspective of your current financial situation, your family dynamics and your goals for the future. With that information, we start building a roadmap.

Establishing, monitoring and refining your strategic plan

Based on the information we’ve gathered from discussions and documentation, we develop models detailing current and projected financial positions and provide strategies that work best for your assets and family situation to help achieve your goals.

We engage in a consultative, goals-based wealth planning process to educate you on the best options and provide guidance to decide which solution to implement. We’ll monitor your plan and as your needs change, our advice evolves.

Your Relationship Manager then works with you and other teams across our Wealth Planning Group to quickly and accurately implement your plan. And we continue to engage with you in the process to capture updates over time. 

Implementing strategies

There are layers to every financial plan and they depend on each person’s unique situation and goals. These can include:

Retirement Planning

We’ll help you determine when you can retire, how much is needed for retirement and stress test your plan for volatility.

Business Ownership

You have financial goals for your business just like you have personal financial goals, but your business needs can often become very complex. We’re here to help assess your business financial goals and help you grow the value of your business through effective financial management strategies. We’ll also provide analysis for different types of exit strategies and timelines so you can choose which one is right for you.
