Our Services

Objectivity. Insight. Goal-oriented planning

The hallmarks of The New Canaan Group BWA.

Business professionals must contend with a dilemma: They can't make more time in their day. As a result, the financial matters in their lives often go unattended. If this describes your life - and the state of your financial life - then perhaps we can help.

We provide comprehensive financial services for discerning business professionals - the level of planning you need with the attention to detail you require.

We are research-based, not sales-based. We understand that financial products are merely components in a strategy, not strategies or solutions in themselves.

INTEGRATED PLANNING TO ANSWER THE CHALLENGE

The New Canaan Group BWA offers you a strategic, interdisciplinary approach to financial planning. We look at the entirety of your finances - your portfolio, your taxes, your insurance, your estate, even your real estate and business holdings - and create a plan with the power to keep you on track toward your goals.

INVESTMENT ADVICE GROUNDED IN RESEARCH

We provide an endowment-style investment strategy based on an Investment Policy Statement (IPS) and dynamic asset allocation. We recommend investment managers using a multi-factor process, and provide portfolio tax management that helps you keep more of what you earn.

RESPONSIVE SERVICE & REPORTING

We provide hands-on leadership, forecast the growth of your wealth into the future, and measure your progress along the way. Consolidated statements and consistent investment performance-reporting let you view the status of your portfolio quickly and easily.

Perhaps it is time to delegate financial management to a firm with the investment professionals and insurance advisors skilled enough to plan greater tax efficiency, portfolio enhancement, estate planning strategies, and wealth appreciation and preservation for your future.

A POWERFUL DIFFERENCE

Dynamic asset allocation* may notably improve portfolio performance over time by producing higher absolute returns, improved risk- and tax-adjusted returns, and lower volatility.
 

*Asset Allocation is a method of diversification that positions assets among major investment categories. This tool may be used in an effort to manage risk and enhance returns. Asset Allocation does not assure a profit, nor does it protect against loss in declining markets.


 

WHY EVERYONE NEEDS AN ADVISOR

As investors, we are human. As humans, we are inherently emotional. And so emotion inevitably colors some of our investment decisions, even as we try to view the financial markets through a strictly rational lens.

Even the savviest investors can fall prey to the "classic financial mistakes." Behavioral finance studies suggest very few people are wired to repeatedly make good financial decisions on their own. We craft our approach in response to this truth.
