Building Your Plan
Our goal is to provide you with an assessment of your complete financial picture. We use our Envision® planning software to document your goals and review your progress toward reaching them. Transparency and mutual understanding are key to your success.
Managing Investment Risk
Our investment methodology is driven by the belief that managing portfolio risk helps enhance growth over time. The process uses strategic asset allocation and analysis to help select appropriate investments to minimize risk while providing the opportunity for growth to help achieve each your unique investment goals.*Asset allocation cannot eliminate the risk of fluctuating prices and uncertain returns.
Meet to Review Progress
Planning is an ongoing process. We meet with you to review and adjust your plan, so it stays up to date and in sync with your changing life.
If your goals or financial circumstances change, it’s easy to update your Envision plan and measure the impact on reaching your goals. By tracking your ongoing investment results against your Envision “Target Zone,” you’ll always be able to easily answer the question, “How am I doing?”

IMPORTANT: The projections or other information generated by the Envision tool regarding the likelihood of various investment outcomes are hypothetical in nature, do not reflect actual investment results, and are not guarantees of future results. Results may vary with each use and over time.
ENVISION METHODOLOGY: Based on accepted statistical methods, the Envision tool uses a simulation model to test your ideal, acceptable, and recommended investment plans. The simulation model uses assumptions about inflation, financial market returns, and the relationships among these variables. These assumptions were derived from analysis of historical data. Using Monte Carlo simulation, the Envision tool simulates 1,000 different potential outcomes over a lifetime of investing varying historical risk, return, and correlation amongst the assets. Some of these scenarios will assume strong financial market returns, similar to the best periods of history for investors. Others will be similar to the worst periods in investing history. Most scenarios will fall somewhere in between.
