Wealth Management Austin TX
When it comes to your finances, you want to make sure that you are making the best decisions for your future. This is why it is important to work with a professional wealth manager, in Austin Texas, or elsewhere in the US. However, not all wealth managers are created equal. The right manager is one that understands your unique goals and needs, and one you can trust to always work with your best interest in mind. Here are some things to look for when choosing a wealth manager:
Looking for fee-only wealth management in Austin TX, or elsewhere?
1) Look for a wealth manager who is Fee-Only. This means that the advisor only makes money from the fees he or she directly charges. A fee-only advisor does not receive any commissions or incentives of any kind from product providers. Beware of similar-sounding attributes like fee-based, which allow advisors to earn commissions. Fee-only is the key. Because there are no commissions or kickbacks involved, a fee-only advisor can provide more objective advice.
2) Does the manager consider your entire net worth then designing your investment plan? Your financial situation, including everything you own, how you generate income, and your goals and preferences are unique to you. Importantly, they should all inform your investment strategy. Therefore, you need an advisor who understands your unique situation and can apply complex financial planning and investment strategies to your needs. Ask them what they think makes you unique, and how they may approach your situation.
3) Successful wealth management is a long-term endeavor, which requires a commitment to a strategy. For this to happen, you need to have an investment philosophy that matches the one of your advisor. Ask about the wealth manager’s investment philosophy. The advisor should have a clear investment philosophy and should be able to convey it to you in a way that you understand it, including what the advisor will do and when, and what they will not do and when. You may not have a clear investment philosophy, yet. So this discussion can help you formulate one. You want to make sure that the advisor’s investment strategy aligns with your own risk tolerance and financial goals. If the advisor uses too much jargon or terms you do not understand, don’t be afraid to ask them to speak in layman’s terms. Good advisors are usually good teachers, willing to explain and share their knowledge. and should not use jargon to hide information from you.
