Judd Frank
Managing Director - InvestmentsPIM Portfolio Manager
Judd has been with Wells Fargo Advisors since 2010, and is part of a select group of advisors that are qualified to be in the Private Investment Management Program. As a PIM portfolio manager, Judd is able to manage custom portfolios for clients on a discretionary basis. Judd focuses on understanding each client’s risk tolerance and goals, in order to create an investment allocation that is tailored to each client’s personal situation. He is focused on regularly staying in touch with our clients to review investment results and plans, as well as make recommendations for changes when the need arises.
Judd recognizes that producing cash flows within an investment portfolio is an important part of helping to stabilize portfolio returns, and can provide income for those who are retired. Dividend income from stocks, real estate investment trusts, mutual funds, exchange traded funds and bonds may be used to provide monthly distributions to supplement the outside income sources of our clients.
