Understanding Today’s Financial Environment
Mission ~ Quality lives through intelligent, informed, financial and lifetime planning decisions.
We serve clients through financial advice and life planning, money management and as financial advocates to help improve the quality of our clients’ lives. We feel the planning approach best manifests our commitment to aligning clients’ values, life goals and financial decisions.
Ketron Financial, LLC manages or coordinates the management of clients’ assets utilizing a long-term investment approach. The fee for managed accounts is based on the value of assets under management. Once we understand a clients planning and investment needs, we will quote a fee and prepare a letter of engagement that defines the work to be accomplished and the cost before the planning process begins.
Communication with clients is ongoing to answer questions, review investment portfolios and discuss new issues as they arise. These issues may include changes in the investment environment, changes in laws that may affect planning strategies and changes in a client’s circumstances.
We can help you address your needs of today and for many years to come. We look forward to working with you through all stages of your life, please call (415) 892-0928.
