Our Approach

“The loftier the building, the deeper must the foundation be laid.” 
~Thomas a Kempis,  German-Dutch author, c. 1380 – 1471  

All endeavors of lasting quality need to be built on a solid foundation. The framework for a successful wealth management program is an ongoing, open dialogue about your goals and aspirations, as well as your concerns and sensitivities. 

To structure a portfolio that affords you peace of mind, we first understand your financial and life goals, your time frames for achieving each of them, and the risk level you are comfortable with. We then create and manage customized portfolios that reflect your preferences and long-term objectives.

Our Philosophy

“Each person is the architect of his own fortune."
~ Appius Claudius, builder of the Appian Way, c. 340 BC – 273 BC 

While the pace of our lives moves ever-faster, some universal truths never change. Among them is the idea that "Each person is the architect of his own fortune.” The ancient sages knew that we have control over our own lives and believed that we can create our own fortunes through sound planning, skillful strategies, hard work, and perseverance. 

A key part of achieving success is aligning your goals with skilled partners whose expertise allows you to focus on your primary raison d'être. Waterstone Advisors offers you a highly-personalized client experience, employing an institutional quality investment process designed to help you build your wealth over time.

Philosophy

Process

“Three Rules of Work: Out of clutter find simplicity. From discord find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”
~Albert Einstein,  German theoretical physicist, 1879 - 1955

Investing is an art, and, investing is a science. Both art and science spring from human curiosity and a need to create simplicity and harmony from the clutter that’s all around us. Investing is the same. Out of the complexity of the daily news flow, and the harrowing ups and downs of the stock markets, investors are challenged with making sense of it all. Yet in the midst of that very confusion and noise is where great investment opportunities are discerned.

Today, most investment advisors invest their client's assets in mutual funds and ETFs. Waterstone Advisors employs an approach based primarily on proprietary stock selection as we believe individual stocks offer our clients greater transparency and potential for higher returns, at lower costs.
