Financial Planning and Investing

The Private Wealth Management Program combines ongoing investment management and financial advisory support to help ensure you get on track and stay on track, no matter what challenges life throws at you along the way.

All of our new clients begin with a review of their goals, current financial situation and savings strategy with a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional. Over the long-term, we have helped clients navigate a variety of situations that have ranged from common to very unique.

Financial planning is really a “catch-all” bucket for everything else that may impact you over the course of your life. Much of what we do in the beginning with new clients typically centers around employee benefits, college planning, managing cash flows, stock options, and short-term goals. Financial planning at Darrow is a highly personalized service, so it really just depends on what your specific needs are.

Transparency

As a fee-only financial advisor, we do not sell securities, investment products, or receive commissions or compensation from 3rd parties.

Fiduciary Duty to Always Act in Your Best Interest

A fiduciary duty means we are legally bound to act at all times for the sole benefit and interest of our clients. This is the highest act of loyalty, trust and care under the law.

Independent

We are also completely independent, so you don’t have to worry about fund family allegiances or other corporate actions that could distance us from our clients.

Stress Testing Your Plan

The financial markets don’t just go up. Understanding your investment risk is key at any age. The Darrow team of financial advisors include a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and a Chartered Financial Analyst®. We have the tools and expertise to help clients understand where they stand financially and assess various risks and opportunities.

By stress testing a financial plan or changes to your goals with a Monte Carlo analysis, investors can feel more confident their portfolio can withstand a variety of different market conditions without jeopardizing their financial goals.
