Ongoing Portfolio Assessment – We constantly examine your current portfolio performance and work with you to implement strategies that seek to maximize the future performance, safety and preservation of your portfolio.
Continuing Investment Risk Assessment – Some people are more inclined to take on risk than others. We will guide you to take a level of risk appropriate for your age and asset base. We will revisit your changing risk-tolerance as you age, and as your portfolio grows.
Recurring Portfolio Adjustment – We periodically assess your portfolio, risk tolerance and preference for cash-flow, and make adjustments as necessary.
Year-end Review of Tax-Advantaged Opportunities – Tax laws change and tax-advantaged investment strategies change with them. We will keep your portfolio current with every tax-advantaged opportunity available.
Quarterly, semi-annual or yearly meetings – Of course you may call us anytime. If you have questions, Dodds Wealth Management Group is known for fast, personal, courteous response by phone, with a knowledgeable real person anytime. We also suggest that you sit down with us for a comprehensive review of your portfolio at least once a year, or several times a year if you wish.
Internet Access to Your Portfolio in Real-Time – You don’t have to call. Just go to our web site and check out the condition of your portfolio online, instantly, anytime of the day or night.

Individual Purchasing/Monitoring. Our expertise allows for individual purchasing, when appropriate, of anything from preferred stock offerings to hybrid bonds and securities.
Retirement Budget/Lifestyle Management. Through our ‘interest and dividend’ asset management plan – we call it our “Caribbean Strategy” – your bills are paid, your lifestyle budget assured, as you cruise the oceans of the world or follow your dreams in some other way, carefree.
Timely Cash Flow Analysis – We work with you from time to time to determine your spending needs for a comfortable retirement lifestyle.
Insurance Analysis – Sometimes we find that our clients are unnecessarily over-insured, or that current policy premiums are over-priced. Just as often, we find clients who are dangerously under-insured in critical areas, leaving assets exposed to anything from property liability to nursing home care. We have the expertise to determine how much coverage you really need, where you will need it and when, thus preserving your remaining assets for optimum performance.
