The Value of Financial Planning
Financial planning is a crucial step in managing your financial future. Not only does it help you see your current financial situation, but it also helps you think about those things you would like to do in the next five years, ten years, and throughout retirement.

At Stifel, we look at your entire financial situation, including your asset allocation, investable assets, liabilities, future income streams and savings, insurance needs, estate planning issues, and more. We will take everything into consideration and determine strategies and action plans. This includes:
Planning for the Future
This is a comprehensive review and planning process that addresses your financial needs. We begin by getting to know you, your family, your career, your hobbies, and other interests, as well as short- and long-term goals.

Periodic Review In this meeting, which can be face to face or over the phone, we will go over investment performance and any lifestyle or goal changes that have occurred since the last time we've talked. It is important to know your risk parameters and individual goals so we can structure a plan to help you pursue them. |

Stifel does not provide legal or tax advice. You should consult with your legal and tax advisors regarding your particular situation.
Alternative investments involve a high degree of risk, often engage in leveraging and other speculative investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss, can be highly illiquid, are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors, may involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing tax information, are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as more traditional investments, and often charge high fees, which may erode performance. An investment is appropriate only for investors who have the capacity to absorb a loss of some or all of their investment.
