Our Focus
At RIA Advisors, we work with a wide range of individuals, families and business clients, providing money management and financial planning services tailored to each client’s needs. Simply put, we’re in the business of helping our clients reach their unique financial objectives. We accomplish this task by taking the time to understand the client’s financial situation, goals and risk tolerance. Based upon this in-depth analysis, we then recommend, develop, implement and monitor their investment portfolio performance.
Holistic Approach
The financial crisis of 2008 served as the catalyst for creating RIA Advisors. In our roles as financial advisors at another financial services company in Houston, we were frustrated and disappointed with that firm’s complacency and lack of focus in providing adequate guidance to clients as they faced rapid loss of wealth in the worst market derailment since the Great Depression. This situation drove us to seek a path where we could put our clients’ interests first – not shareholders.
In 2009, we launched RIA Advisors at our office in Houston. We understand that, as investors, our clients’ prospective has changed. After devastating stock market collapses since the start of this century, it’s time for RIA Advisors.
How We’re Different
An objective, client-focused mission that:
- Avoids inflexible investment strategies based on the “buy and forget” mentality
- Eschews the lack of experience and knowledge that too frequently now characterizes many brokers who frankly are better equipped to be salespeople instead of trusted financial advisors.
- Rejects the practices of many financial services companies which overlook or neglect the total, holistic financial life planning, portfolio customization and education that clients need and deserve.
Unlike other financial services firms:
- We offer personalized, customized money management and financial planning.
- We deliver goals-based planning for each client’s portfolio.
- We are objective in our financial analysis for each client.
- We adhere to a buy-rebalance-sell discipline.
- We take pride in handling all clients’ requests with a sense of urgency and respect.
We act in the best interests of our clients – with no pressure to market investment products that are inappropriate for our clients.
