Celebrating 30 Years in Wealth Management
Ratcliff Financial Services Inc, established in 1991, is an independent Private Wealth Management Firm. With an emphasis on Investment Management, we understand the complexities of managing a wealthy estate. Our Customized Planning techniques include Portfolio Management Strategies, Tax Planning Strategies, Retirement Planning, Business Succession Plannin
g, Estate Planning and Asset Protection. We are client driven seeking solutions that best fit the clients specific needs as opposed to a product oriented firm looking to make sales with a specific product to push. At RFSI we have limited the number of client we will take on in order to offer full attention to the clients we do have. To foster this "always available" environment we have set our account minimum at $1,000,000 to open a new account. is an independent financial services firm, Our accounts are held and managed through Cetera Advisor Networks LLC. Brokerage ex*****on and technical services are performed by an industry leader - Pershing LLC, a subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation. Bank of New York, established in 1784, is the oldest Bank in the USA. As an independent firm we have the freedom to spend the time necessary to help you manage your account to its fullest potential. There is no parent company product pushing, investment banking conflicts of interest or biased analyst advice. This provides an environment without conflict of interest and a best decision scenario for the client. We base our decisions on what the client needs not what the firm wants. The client truly does come first. The accounts are managed in a fee based environment. The fee amount depends on the account balance. This management style and fee arrangement aligns the motivations of the Advisor with the desired outcome of the Client. The Team Approach = Well Rounded Financial Decisions
We utilize a chosen team of independent professionals to help develop Investment Planning strategies for our clients. I believe good financial advice is given only after the Client’s Investment, Tax and Legal environments are taken into consideration. We often work directly with your existing CPA* and Attorney*. I believe this helps give the client an advantage in making important decisions when recommendations of Investments, Tax and Legal environments are taken into consideration. Additionally, the team includes a Lending Specialist, Group Benefits consultant and an Insurance specialist. I feel the quality of our advice is increased from the close communication of this team. Our clients appreciate the convenience of having a team of professionals available to help meet their needs.
