Trebuchet Consulting, LLC.

Asset Accumulation

Salary, bonus, stock options, retirement plans, sale of a business, gifts, life insurance and inheritance…these items and many more provide means to accumulate assets. The professional integration of income tax, estate tax, retirement and investment planning can accelerate the rate of accumulation from all sources.

 

Asset Allocation

Asset allocation is the way in which you spread your investment portfolio among different asset classes, such as stocks, mutual funds, alternative investments, real estate, and bonds. Combining these investments in a portfolio can help reduce the variability of returns, commonly referred to as "market risk." The asset allocation that is right for you depends on your investment time frame, goals, and tolerance for risk. As your investment time frame and goals change, so will your asset allocation. Quarterly rebalance is the norm, but life changing events such as marriage, the birth of a child, or retirement will cause you to reevaluate your overall strategy. An investment strategy reexamines priorities of specific financial goals, anticipates needs for the future, and prepares for the unexpected.

 

Asset Preservation

The protection of assets includes adequate insurance and the use of appropriate legal entities. A review of your family's need for insurance – life, homeowners, automobile, personal, excess liability and long term health care insurance will be undertaken. We will assist in the implementation of any changes in your coverage. The inclusion of Trusts, Limited Liability Corporations or Family Limited Partnerships can assist in the protection of assets in case of litigation or divorce, among other concerns in modern society. These vehicles can be used to fulfill your objectives, while offering a degree of protection.
