Q: Describe SVA Plumb Wealth Management, LLC’s investment philosophy.
A: Everyone’s needs are different, but our firm’s investment philosophy remains consistent. We focus on asset allocation, diversification, risk management, and cost control when investing our clients’ funds. We maintain a long-term focus on market performance. We do not attempt to time the market or chase returns by moving in and out based on market fluctuations.

We start by identifying target asset classifications across seven broad risk objectives, each with different exposures to stocks, bonds and cash. We then focus on diversifying portfolios within each risk objective to provide exposure to domestic and international securities, large and small companies, and the growth and value investment strategies. We also provide our clients with exposure to non-highly correlated investments such as commodities, natural resources and global real estate.
Q: How do you choose your investments for client portfolios?
A: Our investment team selects and evaluates the investments within our clients’ portfolios. We use a wide scope of tools to evaluate thousands of investment options that fit into our chosen asset classifications.

Once the top funds are chosen for our model portfolios, we conduct ongoing analysis and monitor the investments. Our investment manager reviews the markets and mutual fund performance regularly against similar investments within their category.

Through careful analysis and evaluation by a number of professionals, we work diligently to ensure we are allocating your funds in the most efficient way possible for you to reach your goals.
Q: How do I learn more?
A: We invite you to come in for a complimentary meeting with one of our consultants. The purpose of this no-obligation meeting is to learn more about each other and find out if SVA Plumb Wealth Management, LLC is the right firm for you.

We will also conduct a complimentary investment analysis of your current portfolio to review your allocation and whether it’s appropriate for your goals. Contact us to learn more.
