VaR

Value at Risk Analysis

Risk tolerance is an investor’s ability to remain invested during downward market cycles in exchange for a potential return.

Within the initial review, we help you understand your risk threshold. We do this by deploying a Value at Risk (VaR) Analysis that helps us quantify attitudes toward financial uncertainty, specifically one’s emotional tolerance with respect to the magnitude and speed of potential investment loss.

This analysis produces a VaR Score that is indexed on a scale from conservative to aggressive. The VaR Score can help us determine if the current portfolio aligns with your risk tolerance and provides insight as to whether changes to that portfolio are needed.

Coordinating Your Wealth, Taxes, and Retirement

Money is personal. That’s why we take the time to understand your goals and build a customized investment approach designed around what matters most to you.

01

Start Smart

Starting smart begins by getting a clear understanding of an investor’s current financial situation and how they would like it to progress to help meet their future lifestyle goals and objectives.

During this process we get to know our prospective clients by gathering information pertaining to their personal values, financial goals, and existing financial accounts. We also evaluate their attitudes toward six universal financial planning considerations and conduct a Value at Risk (VaR) Analysis.

Financial Planning Considerations

The six universal financial planning considerations are potential barriers investors may face when working toward their goals. We believe that it’s important to evaluate investor sentiment towards each consideration through a succinct questionnaire. This allows us to examine the potential effects of these considerations on an investor’s assets today and in the future.

Longevity

Outliving financial assets as the result of a longer life.

Liquidity

Limited access to assets to meet life’s unexpected financial needs.

Inflation

Reduction in real purchasing power as the result of increasing cost of living.

Market

Unexpected reduction in the value of financial assets at the time of withdrawal.

Mortality

Loss of financial assets as the result of a partner’s or spouse’s death.

Taxes

Decreasing income and assets and/or the impairment of legacy assets from increasing taxes.

Value at Risk Analysis

Risk tolerance is an investor’s ability to remain invested during downward market cycles in exchange for a potential return.
