From the first conversation to ongoing management, here is what working with Ascent looks like.
Before we discuss your finances, you receive our Form ADV brochure and brochure supplement, our Privacy Notice, and the New Jersey Bureau of Securities Investor Protection Information Form, delivered electronically for your review.
We discuss your goals, your career, and your financial situation by phone, video, or in person, whichever you prefer. It is a chance to decide whether Ascent is the right fit, with no obligation.
Your goals, risk tolerance, time horizon, and any restrictions are documented in our advisory agreement and your Investment Policy Statement, which you sign before your account is opened.
We recommend Interactive Brokers, an independent custodian. Accounts are opened in your name, and existing assets are transferred in.
Your portfolio is managed within your Investment Policy Statement and adjusted as your circumstances change.
A complimentary consultation to discuss your situation and whether Ascent is the right fit.
