How We Are Different
In our consulting model, The Wisdom of We ®, we encourage three key planning dynamics. All of the advisors come to the table with a genuine desire to collaborate, the technical elements of the plan must work together as seamlessly as the advisors, and the team that creates the plan stays together following implementation to support the client over time.
Our model is supported by the following:
- Access to Proprietary Life Insurance Products Designed & Priced for the Affluent Marketplace.
- Underwriting Proficiency to Address a Variety of Potential Medical & Avocation Challenges.
- Experienced Staff of Long Tenured Marketing & Service Professionals.
- Annual Review Process that Creates Opportunities & Avoids Disappointing Surprises.
- Department Expertise In:
- Estate Preservation Planning – Multi-Generational Perpetuation – Life Insurance as an immediate and liquid asset to offset federal estate tax liabilities. Helping our clients “keep together” what they have worked their lifetime to “put together” is our mantra at MB. Life insurance properly structured can help affluent individuals and families create sufficient immediate cash liquidity to pay federal estate taxes, provide an equitable distribution for heirs in different financial situations, and help create real incentives to ensure that inherited wealth serves to promote the family legacy.
- Income Replacement for Individuals & Families – Individual Term Life Insurance Policies
- Income Gift, and Estate Tax Impacts Considered on policies’ construction – Split Dollar Funding for Gift Tax Efficiency
- Business Continuity, Succession and Transfer Planning for Private Businesses – Buy/Sell Solutions
- Attracting, Retaining and Motivating Key Employees in Businesses – Supplemental Retirement Income Uses of Life Insurance Planning
- Charitable Giving Intent – “Giving Back” to the Community – Life Insurance when properly structured can facilitate significant legacy gifts that would otherwise impact heirs.
- Annual Policy Reviews and Audits Process for Life Insurance Portfolio Management – Our proprietary MB insurance audit is a thorough, unbiased assessment of a policyholder’s existing life insurance portfolio. The goal is to make certain the existing portfolio meets the intent, new objectives and risk tolerances of the client. Our audit benchmarks the current portfolio cost and performance based upon reasonable assumptions and compares them to the expected costs and performance of other market appropriate products. We offer this service to our existing and future MB clients as a part of our ongoing client services.
