Looking at the Whole Picture...

The term wealth management has become ubiquitous in today's investment industry; so much so that it has lost most of its true meaning. Wealth management, however, in its true form, is simply intended to help clients make the most efficient use of their financial resources (so that they can accomplish their personal goals and objectives). In other words, the goal of the wealth manager is to help clients grow their wealth by minimizing taxes, managing cash flow, investing savings in an institutional-quality manner (not selling product or investment "ideas") and maximizing eventual estate value.
