Between the demands of leading your company and the complex nature of your personal finances, it’s only natural to want to ensure your assets are in order and working as hard as you do. We can help you develop a comprehensive, cohesive financial strategy that fits your unique needs and enables you to pursue both short- and long-term goals.

Corporate Cash Management Services

We offer a comprehensive suite of cash management services to integrate your day-to-day liquidity needs with your long-term ambitions. While great for the occasional payment, these solutions are also an attractive alternative to a traditional bank.

Corporate Executive Services

We offer guidance and support to executives of publicly traded companies as they face the varied, and often complicated, issues relating to ownership of their company’s stock. Stifel is equipped to handle such complex issues as financing the exercise of stock options, financing the taxes due upon the vesting of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, control and restricted stock transactions, and Rule 10b5-1 plans.

Investment Banking

Our investment bank is a leader in the middle market, which gives us a unique perspective on emerging managers on our platform. We also engage with our investment banking group to help evaluate these entrepreneurial companies and participate in offerings when private direct investments are available.

Our services cover all areas of wealth management, from investment and retirement planning to risk mitigation strategies and issues surrounding estate planning. We specialize in helping our clients develop a comprehensive, cohesive financial strategy that fits their unique needs and enables them to pursue both short- and long-term goals.

Comprehensive Wealth Planning

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.  Through our financial resources, we’ll work as a team to clearly define those goals and to develop a customized strategy to pursue them.

Generational and Family Planning

At the Adams Reichert Wealth Management Group, we work with your whole family to help with your generational wealth transfer planning.

Generational planning encompasses more than the distribution of your estate to your heirs.  It is a process designed to identify the best way to accumulate, preserve, and mitigate risk to your wealth by implementing a plan to meet all of your objectives.  A carefully prepared estate plan can help you address lifetime management issues, as well as death transfer issues.

Investment Planning

Not only do we help you manage your portfolio, we work directly with you on your investment choices, making sure your portfolio matches your unique investment goals.  Click here to view more information on our Investment Approach.

Estate Planning Strategies and Trust Services

Once you have reached your destination, you will likely want to preserve your wealth for future generations.  Proper estate planning can minimize taxes and administrative expenses and ensure that your assets will pass to loved ones and charities according to your wishes.  Proactive planning can also ease the burden on your loved ones during a stressful period.  Your Stifel Wealth Strategist Report® will calculate the size of your estate and examine the impact of taxes and other estate settlement costs.

Risk Management Strategies

There is always the possibility that unforeseen roadblocks can appear on the road to your financial goals. That’s where risk management strategies come into play.  Your Stifel Wealth Strategist Report® will help you put a plan in place to help ensure that your family’s needs are met in the event of the loss of a wage earner’s income due to injury, illness, long-term care need, or death.  It will examine whether or not your existing disability, life, and long-term care insurance coverage will be adequate in the event of a need and offer suggestions as to how much coverage you may need to preserve your income and assets.

Retirement Planning Strategies

Planning for retirement is one of our primary focuses.  We’ll assist you in understanding where you are today, what will be required for retirement, and what you will need to do between now and then.  We’ll not only look at your savings and investments, but also Social Security, long-term care expenses, cost of living, and Medicare.

Education Funding

With tuition costs consistently on the rise, planning for such a monumental expense can be quite daunting. We can educate you on specific tax-advantaged investments, college savings plans, and potential estate planning benefits.
