Stifel is committed to a comprehensive approach of providing an array of financial services to our clients. Through our wealth management process, we coordinate asset allocation, investment planning, estate and trust planning strategies, corporate executive services, and business owner planning investment services. Through this process, we address creating and growing wealth, mitigating risk to and preserving wealth, and planning for the distribution of wealth during life and distribution of wealth at death in the most tax-advantaged way possible.

Stifel’s wealth management process consists of six steps that help get an overview of the client’s current situation, choices available, and what must be done to pursue goals. The process involves gathering relevant financial information, determining life goals, examining current financial status, and formulating a strategy or plan for how to work toward goals given the current situation and future plans.
