Financial Advisors in Beverly, Massachusetts (Essex County)

Robert Hurley
Stoddard Management Company uses a common-sense, global approach to wealth management and financial planning for families and individuals. The goal is to create an investment portfolio with a high degree of probability that it will achieve the client's long-term objectives with as little risk as possible. A portfolio is composed of all of the individual's or family's accounts, both taxable accounts and tax-deferred retirement accounts. Deficiencies in one account (such as the lack of diverse investment options in a 401k account) are compensated for in another account. In this way, all accounts are coordinated so that the entire portfolio is aimed at meeting the client's objectives. Once the portfolio is constructed it is monitored and, over time, adjusted to reflect changes in the client's objectives, changes in the markets and changes within the securities used to fund the accounts.
At the same time initial investment recommendations are implemented, estate planning, retirement planning, taxes, insurance and education funding issues are addressed. Initial recommendations regarding these issues are made. Over time these issues are reviewed in the light of changing laws and changing client requirements and adjustments are made as necessary. If you'd like to see how Stoddard Management Company can help you achieve your financial goals, please call Bob Hurley, Principal/Advisor, at to schedule a complimentary consultation.... See More

Ariadne's philosophy is centered around low costs, smart investing and fair treatment of clients.
In deciding to work with Ariadne you are investing in a relationship that you believe will be valuable to you and your family. It is important for you to feel comfortable with our process, our philosophy and our personality before making this decision. Similarly, Ariadne makes an investment in each of our clients. Because we are unwilling to compromise our ability to maintain personal connections with each client, our growth is limited. For us to be successful, we make sure the clients we work with are those who we are best positioned to help.
Prior to asking for a commitment, we engage in a series of in-depth discussions to help us clearly understand your values, goals and financial situation. Following these conversations, we provide you with a plan and review our suggested course of action. If you are comfortable with what you hear and want to move forward, we formalize the relationship and begin working together. If you choose not to continue working with us, that's ok too. Ariadne will not be a good fit for everybody. The analysis and suggestions we've offered come at no cost to you. In the very least we hope you've learned something and that our conversations have left you in a better place than when we began.
We understand that our approach is fairly unique. In the spirit of fairness, we owe this level of due-diligence to both our clients, and ourselves. We strongly believe an extensive, mutual exploration process is time well spent. It is the best way to ensure each party has the level of information required to make an educated decision about moving forward. What's good for our clients, is good for us.... See More
