Women’s Wealth Management FAQs
Do women need different financial planning strategies than men?
While the financial planning fundamentals remain the same, women often face unique circumstances, such as career breaks, longer life expectancy, or caring for family members. These circumstances require personalized strategies for saving, investing, and protecting wealth. Our financial planning reflects those realities with empathy and expertise.
How can a financial advisor help during a divorce?
A financial advisor can help you understand your full financial picture. We work with you to retitle accounts, create a new budget, and plan for financial goals like retirement or buying a home. Having guidance through this process can reduce stress and help you make informed decisions with clarity.
What financial steps should I take after losing a spouse or partner?
After a loss, the transition can be overwhelming and cumbersome. We help you organize and evaluate your finances, taking care of the necessary administrative work, and helping you prioritize critical pieces of the process from updating accounts and beneficiary designations to reviewing estate plans and adjusting your investment strategy.
