“Institutional money managers have specialized strategies that can reduce volatility and help create more consistent returns. We’re proud that we bring those same strategies to our clients, to make their financial lives less stressful.”

Jeffrey Watts, Co-Founder

Financial independence is difficult to achieve, even for those with high incomes.  Why?  Because there are a lot of variables out of your control.

Large corporations and institutions, however, often are charged with managing large sums of money.  Over the years, Wall Street has developed strategies to help them better diversify and protect that money.

Individuals, however, don’t usually have access to those advanced strategies.  That usually makes you more exposed to market ups and downs….and often less likely to achieve your long term goals.

Bringing Institutional-Style Services to You

At Watts Gwilliam & Company, we believe you should have access to those same advanced strategies that institutions use.  So we bring those to you, but do it without all the conflicts of interest that you find at the big Wall Street firms.  Our services are provided in a fee-only, fiduciary environment, so you can feel confident you’re receiving objective, quality advice.
