Financial Planning

Retirement Planning

How is your retirement looking? What do you still need to do to help ensure that it is the retirement you envision? We tailor our plans to ensure the right investments and products reflect how you want to enjoy your retirement.

Succession Planning

Succession planning is having the right people in the right place at the right time to ensure the continued success of all areas of the business, including key people over time. We work with business owners in a dynamic process that includes not only the continued effectiveness of the business’ operations but also the building of talent to meet the future needs of the business – all with the goal of achieving success.

Investment Planning And Asset Allocation

What kind of guidance will best suit you? We emphasize planning for a lifetime, a well-diversified portfolio and responsible asset allocation.

Our goal is to create a portfolio that gives you the highest likelihood of achieving your goals — balancing risk as well as return. To do this, we employ an Evidence-Driven investment methodology backed by more than 50 years of peer-reviewed financial research and market studies. Learn more.

Sustainable Planning

When you align your values with your investments and your overall financial plan, the potential to make a difference is enormous — for yourself, your family, your community, even the world at large.

We don’t talk about sustainable investing because it’s the latest hot topic. We’re not following a popular trend. Every investment you make, every dollar you spend, and every decision you make has impact. We aim to help you maximize positive impact and alignment with your personal values while striving to achieve your most important personal and financial goals.

Education Planning

How are you planning for this fiscal responsibility? What lies down the road for you and your children or grandchildren when it comes to addressing this most important area of financial planning? We know how to structure investments in this area so that you can work towards your goals and the students in your family can work towards their degrees.

Ever-increasing college education costs generally require parents to lay the groundwork for their savings plans for their children. If needed, your plan will include comprehensive investment portfolios that incorporate education and/or college savings.

Copper Leaf Financial planning can help with such important investments. This includes how much you want to save, how much you can afford to save and the best way to save. Every family is unique in their ability and intention for college education savings. Although saving for a child’s education is extremely important, it should never override an emergency preparedness fund or retirement savings. With a proper financial plan, anxiety over college planning can be alleviated. You share your goals for your children’s education and we determine how to best reach those goals.
