Wealth Management Process

                            Homecoming Sunset by John F. McCarthy, Skaneateles, New York, Stifel

Stifel's wealth management process consists of six steps that help get an overview of your current situation, choices available, and what must be done to pursue goals.  The process involves gathering relevant financial information, determining your organization's goals, examining current financial status, and formulating a strategy or plan for how to work toward goals given the current situation and future plans.
