SELECTING THE RIGHT WEALTH MANAGER

How We Fit Your Needs

With so many financial advisors to choose from, have you thought about what you would like from your wealth management team?

I want to feel confident about my investments.

Samalin Wealth’s curated wealth management is designed to elevate your financial potential. We will give you a 360-degree view of your investments and develop a customized investment strategy to keep your finances aligned with your goals. We integrate most assets into the planning process, even those managed elsewhere.

I want my wealth manager to be accessible and give my financial planning the attention deserved.

You will not be just a number at Samalin Wealth. Our client-centric and multi-disciplinary financial professionals will work closely with you and get to know you and your finances--not just today, but years into the future.

I want to feel comfortable with the amount of risk taken with my investments.

After assessing your risk preferences, we will create a target asset allocation model that will be used as a baseline for comparing your actual asset allocation at the household or account level.

I want to work with a wealth manager whose fees are fair and who doesn't take commissions.

As fee-only fiduciaries, our loyalty is to you, the client. We work without the influence of agendas that commissionable brokers could factor into their financial planning process. Samalin Wealth is fully transparent in its pricing.

I want my assets to be protected.

As an independent investment advisor, Samalin Wealth uses Fidelity Investments as the custodian for our clients. Your account will be insured by SIPC and Fidelity up to the value of the account. There is no per customer limit on coverage of securities.

I want my account to be secure.

Fidelity, the custodian for our clients, deploys formidable controls and extensive risk management programs aligned to the cybersecurity framework established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
