Investment Philosophy
Our investment philosophy is built around two essential elements:
What Matters to You
Our mission is to simplify your financial roadmap so you can work toward retiring with confidence. Using a process we call the “Cathedral FORMula,” we take the time to listen carefully to you to understand everything we can about your:
- Family
- Occupation
- Recreation
- Money
What We Can Control
Now we jump to the control side of the diagram. In life, there are many aspects that are out of our control, and frankly, we don’t spend a lot of time worrying about them. Instead, we focus on the set of your sail rather than the direction of the wind.
- Philosophy. As we work together, we will ask you questions regarding your total assets, accumulated wealth, risk tolerance, and time horizon.
“Our role is customized wealth management, not salesmanship.”
- Planning. We will create customized plans based on your goals and periodically review with you and update your portfolio as life changes occur.
- Process. Everything we do is driven by an established process and set to synchronize with your current and future needs.
By integrating both of these elements, we can work toward your ideal financial future.
