Being an independent advisor removes conflict of interest in which products I can recommend building a balanced portfolio that is best for you. The way it should be.

Active management is best fit for people who don’t have the time, willingness, or ability to monitor their retirement savings or various investment accounts. With my technical background and experience dealing with the volatile stock market, I will use strategies that over the long run will give you the best chance to protect your nest egg as well as growing your assets that best matches your time horizon and goals.

I use Pershing LLC, a subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon, for securities clearing and custody. BNY Mellon is the world’s largest custodian with over $27 trillion in assets under custody. I don’t hold possession of your assets. I simply will manage the accounts and clients would receive statements and confirmations of activity from Pershing.  The fees for this service is a blended rate, which means each tier of assets being managed is applied the corresponding rate. Rates are shown below and go lower with a higher investment amount being managed. The better you do the better I do, which is refreshing compared to other advisors whose compensation is based on what product they sell you – not on how well your investment turns out.
