Customized investment strategies designed around your life β not a one-size-fits-all model.
Our Approach
At N&M DeGiorgio Associates, we understand that no two investors are alike. A portfolio that works perfectly for a 35-year-old business owner accumulating wealth is entirely inappropriate for a 60-year-old couple focused on capital preservation and income generation. That's why we begin every relationship by listening β deeply understanding your financial goals, your risk capacity, your time horizon, and the role your investments play in your overall financial picture.
Our investment philosophy is grounded in evidence: diversification reduces risk, time in the market beats timing the market, and tax efficiency meaningfully improves long-term returns. We combine this disciplined approach with active portfolio monitoring and proactive communication β especially during volatile periods when emotional decisions are most costly.
Because we operate across all six service areas, your investment strategy is never developed in isolation. We coordinate directly with your tax, retirement, and estate planning to ensure every dollar is working as efficiently as possible across your entire financial life.
Our wealth management services are tailored for clients at every stage of the financial journey.
A professional in their 30s or 40s with income to invest and a long runway. You want a smart, diversified strategy that grows your wealth efficiently and minimizes your tax drag along the way.
10β15 years from retirement and concerned about sequence-of-returns risk. You need a strategy that shifts from growth to preservation while generating the income you'll need in retirement.
Much of your wealth is tied up in your business. We help you diversify, build personal wealth outside your business, and coordinate your investment strategy with your exit and succession plan.
We analyze your complete financial picture β assets, liabilities, income, tax situation, and goals β before making any recommendations.
We build a custom investment policy statement and portfolio strategy aligned with your risk profile and objectives.
We construct and fund your portfolio using a tax-efficient approach, minimizing unnecessary transaction costs.
Quarterly reviews, annual strategy updates, and proactive outreach during significant market events keep your plan on track.
We work with clients at a variety of asset levels. Our focus is on building a long-term relationship, not meeting a minimum threshold. We encourage you to schedule a consultation to discuss your situation directly β we believe the conversation itself adds value regardless of portfolio size.
We offer a transparent, fee-based model β typically an assets under management (AUM) fee. This aligns our interests with yours: we succeed when your portfolio grows. We do not earn commissions on products, which means our recommendations are always objective. Full fee details are discussed during your consultation.
At minimum, we schedule formal quarterly portfolio reviews. However, our team is available whenever you have questions or when market conditions warrant a conversation. Many of our clients reach out whenever life events arise β a job change, an inheritance, a business sale β and we respond promptly.
While we typically cannot directly manage employer-sponsored 401(k) accounts, we provide detailed guidance on fund selection and allocation within your plan to ensure it works in concert with your overall investment strategy.
We are long-term, evidence-based investors. We believe in broad diversification, cost efficiency, tax awareness, and disciplined rebalancing. We do not attempt to time the market or chase performance. Our goal is to build portfolios that withstand volatility and compound wealth reliably over time.
