Certainly many people do manage their own money. But many others reach a point in their life where they realize how much is at stake if they make the wrong decisions. And they wisely acknowledge that they may have neither the time to invest in making those choices, nor the professional expertise to make good decisions in today’s complex financial marketplace. We specialize in building our clients’ wealth and managing it so they never run out of money, and feel that we provide value in multiples of what we charge.

Yes. TriCapital has acted as a fiduciary for our clients since we first opened for business in 1999. A fiduciary standard is a higher standard that means an advisor must act in the best interest of his or her client and disclose any potential conflicts of interest. There is much discussion these days about whether a fiduciary standard should apply to all advisors in the securities business so it is important to understand TriCapital has embraced this highest level of advice since our beginning.

There is no cost for an initial meeting. The purpose of the initial meeting is for us to get to know each other, for us to understand the basics of your financial goals and current situation, and to mutually decide if there’s a basis for us to work together toward achieving your financial goals. You are welcome to ask any questions on your mind and develop the best understanding possible of what to expect.

We strive to ensure our fees are transparent, competitive, and fair. We believe that investment management fees based on the assets we manage for you is the most appropriate method since it aligns our interests with yours perfectly. When your accounts grow and you prosper, we prosper. Likewise, if your accounts decline we are in the same boat with you and our compensation declines. Since many client situations are unique, we do retain the flexibility to offer other compensation alternatives, such as an annual retainer, when a particular client situation calls for it. You will always know what fees to expect and have an opportunity to approve them in advance. The bottom line is that we strive to create relationships in which our clients feel they receive high value for the services we provide.
