Personalized Investment Guidance for Santa Barbara Families

We are an independent Investment Advisor serving families and individuals in Santa Barbara and Goleta since 2006. Our clients are located throughout the United States and abroad. Our relatively small size allows us to provide personalized attention and focus.

Fiduciary Responsibility and Client Interests

We act as a fiduciary to our Santa Barbara and Goleta clients, which means putting their financial interests ahead of our own. We do not sell any products or receive commissions. Our interests are aligned with those of our clients – making their net worth grow.

Comprehensive Investment Management

We believe investment management is the core value we provide to our Santa Barbara County clients. We use proprietary investment models applicable to brokerage accounts, trusts, retirement accounts such as IRAs and other account types. We provide financial planning and general financial advice to our clients. We assist clients with their money movement, tax and estate planning and other items which can be confusing, complicated and frustrating to do on their own.

Custody and Security of Client Assets

We use Charles Schwab & Co. Inc. as the third party custodian for client accounts. We are independent and not related to Schwab. Schwab safeguards client assets, helps prevent fraud and provides a range of complementary investment and banking products at no or low cost.

Client-Centric Investment Process

We follow a process that identifies client goals, attitudes and objectives, provides a tailored investment portfolio and ongoing management, client service and general support. These include quarterly reporting, macroeconomic and life base portfolio adjustments, timely financial market information and liquidity.
