Risk Management

Our team identifies risks that could tremendously impair your  financial situation. While it’s important to focus on what may go right  with your situation, it’s also crucial to consider how you may be  negatively impacted without protections in place. Transferring risk to  the deeper pockets of an insurance company in a cost-effective manner  may be prudent to minimize the financial damage of a catastrophic,  unanticipated event. Some of the ways we utilize insurance in the financial planning process include:

Life Insurance

Considers income replacement as well as business succession funding and estate planning through a  vehicle that may be income tax and estate tax-free, if structured properly.

Disability Insurance

Protects your income in the event of your inability to work prior to financial freedom.

Long-Term Care

Provides financial support for activities of daily living in respite care, adult day care, in-home care, assisted living, and nursing home care.

Financial Planning for Businesses

Do you know what your business is worth? Do you have a succession  plan in place if something unexpected happens? How will the sale of your  business affect your retirement? Our financial planners can help you  answer these questions, with a focus on four areas of business financial  planning.

Integrated Planning

Your business is part of your individual financial plan – and a key asset in your life.

KPI Tracking

Set and track key performance indicators that are essential to the success of your business.

Tax Efficiency

We help you make tax-efficient decisions today rather than when it comes time to file.

Succession Planning

Understanding what happens to your business when you’re gone is vital to financial planning.
