Women Are Special Clients


When it comes to financial planning, women have unique needs. Single women, in particular, face difficult financial challenges.  On average, women: 


  • Live longer than men.
  • Earn less than men and typically have less saved for retirement.
  • Are more likely to care for children and elderly parents.
  • Start new companies at twice the rate of men.
  • As divorcees, experience an average 45% decrease in their standard of living in the year following a divorce.
  • At age 65 or older, are 50% more likely to be divorced or widowed.
  • As retirees, receive only half the average retirement benefits of men.
  • Are more fearful than men about making financial decisions, dealing with risk and losing money.

We recognize  that women approach their financial decisions and needs differently. Each woman we work with has different ideas, past experiences, attitudes and unique goals. We take the time to work closely with each of our female clients to develop a relationship that will be lasting and provide personal value.

We are here to help if you are looking for:

  • Experienced and compassionate advice and support to help you make financially informed decisions in your everyday life and when facing major life events.
  • A seasoned financial advisor who really listens to you, understands your particular needs and addresses each individual issue in terms that make sense to you.
  • A relationship with a financial advisor that enables you to be comfortable with financial planning and investment decisions.
  • Expert support in making investment decisions and in helping you to better understand investment performance and how your investments are doing.
