WEALTH MANAGEMENT

We understand your personal aspirations.

We know that helping you plan for your financial future isn’t just about investment portfolios. Versant’s wealth counselors get to know you, your kids, and your grandchildren by aligning with your values and providing financial education to your family’s succeeding generations. Our approach adheres to processes that allow us to adjust goals and recommendations as appropriate based on a picture of your life, aspirations, and current market conditions. And we have the courage to raise critical issues, even if it’s not in the firm’s best interest. We want you to feel confident with our understanding of and thoughtfulness with your personal situation.

Versant Capital Management can provide coordination and collaboration with your other advisors and outside resources, such as tax, estate planning, and insurance, to incorporate your investments and other assets into the overall strategy — whether we manage them or not.

Client Services

Capital Sufficiency Analysis

Do you have enough?

  • At Versant Capital Management, your financial, personal, wealth, and family goals and objectives are defined through a process called a Capital Sufficiency Analysis. By adjusting as necessary — as personal, regulatory, and economic climates change — we create solutions oriented to your circumstances. We are not influenced by financial products or other factors not in your interest.
  • Your assets, liabilities, cash flow, and taxable income are reviewed to develop an investment strategy aligned with your goals, risk profile, circumstances, and preferences, to help protect and grow your family resources today and in the future.

 

Investment Performance Reporting & Coordination

Are you meeting your financial goals?

  • You will receive a regular investment performance-reporting package for the assets we manage on your behalf. Our reporting provides performance metrics and summary accounting after all costs are considered. Our reporting philosophy centers on transparency, honesty, and accountability to you.
  • If there are assets outside of our management, your report aggregates all your holdings to provide a picture of your investment assets.
  • You’ll have a schedule showing your asset allocation, and where you are currently compared with your target and financial goal. We believe review meetings are essential to keeping you informed. Meetings are conducted annually, or more often if desired.

Is your family prepared?
