The Advocate Group offers tailored investment management and financial planning services designed around the specific needs of each client. The firm believes that a comprehensive financial plan should drive investment decisions rather than just personal risk tolerance, helping clients establish proper liquid reserves and navigate concentrated wealth positions in company stock. Investment management services include ongoing supervision of accounts with discretionary or non-discretionary trading authority, utilizing mutual funds, fixed income, exchange-traded funds, stocks, and other securities. Financial planning covers long-term goals, investment management, tax planning, retirement and cash flow modeling, transition planning, estate design, risk management, and philanthropic planning. Clients with $3,000,000 or more in investment management services receive financial planning as part of their investment management fee. The firm primarily serves individuals, high net worth individuals, pension and retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and corporations.
