Wealth management vs. financial planning is a key phrase often researched by those who are interested in hiring someone to help manage their money. These terms, sometimes used interchangeably, actually have subtle differences worth noting.
Managers and planners have similar responsibilities, but the complexity of each varies in scope. Knowing the subtle variations will assist you in finding the services that best fit your unique financial situation regardless of complexity.
Financial planning is a broad term that encompasses all aspects of your economic life. Financial planners work with their clients to get the greatest benefit from their money by positioning their current assets in alignment with future goals.

High-net-worth assets often require services that are more complex than general financial planning. Services specifically tailored to high-net-worth clients include, but are not limited to:
