If you want to learn more about our process, below is an outline of our 5-Step Wealth Optimization Process, where each step is customized to your individual goals.
Portfolio Audit
Understand the inner-workings of your portfolio.
During the first step, the portfolio audit, our wealth advisors create an in-depth analysis of your portfolio called the Portfolio X-Ray.
The Portfolio X-Ray looks at your portfolio's expense ratios, diversification, asset allocation, and other fees to identify its strengths and weaknesses.
By understanding what is working and what is not, our team can help to create a plan that can better reach your goals.
Investment Management
A custom-built portfolio based on your goals.
The second step, investment management, focuses on creating a custom portfolio based on your goals.
Based on the Portfolio X-Ray, our team combines the strengths of your current portfolio with our 8-Quadrant Investment Approach to create a custom portfolio designed to meet your financial objectives.
Tax Planning & Preparation
A tax plan built on tax efficiency.
During the third step, tax planning and preparation, our wealth advisors team will optimize your portfolio's tax strategy to maximize tax efficiency and your after-tax return.
Our team can create a tax strategy to help reduce the effect taxes have on your portfolio by using a combination of tax-efficient securities, gain realization strategies, and withdrawal strategies.
Advanced Financial Planning
Financial planning for every area of your life.
The fourth step, advanced financial planning, builds custom financial plans aimed at achieving your financial goals.
Our team works with you to help create financial, retirement, estate, education, and charitable giving plans designed to benefit you, your wealth, and your family.
Clients work with their advisors to set up their eMoney Wealth Management System (WMS), a tool that allows investors to view all of their financial assets, accounts, and documents in one place.
Private Client Services
One team dedicated to you and your financial goals
The fifth step, private banking and reporting services, works with your team to oversee, report on, and service your portfolio and accounts and to secure low-rate lending solutions to extend the breadth and reach of your wealth.
At your request, our team can work with you and your outside advisors to help coordinate your financial plan.
Clients can access the Chicago Partners Portal, low-cost lending solutions, and custom portfolio reports from a desktop, tablet, or smartphone.
