WEALTH MANAGEMENT
We take a holistic and academic approach to wealth management, crafting investment portfolios designed to pursue your specific financial goals, all while considering tax impact and overall costs. As an independent Registered Investment Advisor, Seamount Financial Group not only provides access to a wide range of investment options, we also advise on alternative investments including real estate and business holdings.
We have successfully built custom portfolios for clients since 1982, and as investment assets under management have grown steadily to approximately $550 million (as of December 31st 2021), we continue to adhere to core investment disciplines including diversification, asset allocation, tax mitigation, and cost efficiency. Once your initial investment objectives are established, your assets are consistently monitored to help meet those objectives by investing wisely amidst changing market and economic conditions. To ensure that we remain able to provide the highest quality experience for each client, we require a minimum $500,000 of investable assets to implement our wealth management services.
