Personalized Wealth Management and Family Office Services
By acting as a dedicated fiduciary, our goal is to provide financial guidance and support with a focus on creating a lasting legacy that helps secure your future for generations to come.
We founded Salem Partners Wealth Management to provide a select group of clients with deeply personal financial guidance, prioritizing the quality of relationships over quantity. As a fiduciary and fee-only registered investment advisor (RIA), we deliver expert, integrity-driven service in a client-focused, entrepreneurial environment. Guided by our "Clients First" philosophy, we are committed to ensuring an unparalleled wealth management experience.
Our Long-Term Investment Philosophy
As Warren Buffett says, successful investors need to invest for the long-term and avoid being swayed by the fear and greed of others that can cause irrational swings in the market. We do not let the daily noise and volatility of the markets deter us from our mission to be faithful stewards of our clients' capital. As long-term investors, we and our clients commit ourselves to adhere to well-defined investment policy statements, which have been custom-built for each individual client, in order to achieve their long-term investment objectives, while accepting the inevitable price fluctuations of the public markets.
High Touch Services
Building strong relationships to us means offering a wide variety of services well beyond traditional portfolio management. We seek to provide value added counsel in all areas of our clients' financial lives, partnering with them to achieve their goals and objectives. Salem Partners Wealth Management prides itself on being relationship builders and having only as many clients as we can comfortably spend adequate time with. We enjoy a high employee to client ratio, which allows us to provide a great deal of focus and attention to each client. Client meetings and discussions occur throughout the year.
Wealth Management Strategies Tailored to Your Needs
We coordinate professional services amongst our clients' attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors, and we take primary responsibility for integrating their services with our clients' other wealth management needs.
