Our team-based approach provides a range of services and resources that allow us to build uniquely crafted solutions for your needs and your vision for the future.

    • Investment Management

      Our in-house team of full-time research analysts works in concert with our advisors as we construct each portfolio, balancing risk and return for each client’s specific situation.

    • Retirement & Cash Flow Planning

      Your path to retirement is as unique as you are. We work closely with you to identify your goals, address your concerns, and ensure long-term financial security by developing a tailored and comprehensive financial plan.

    • Income Tax Planning

      Our advisors understand the relationship between taxes, financial planning, and investments. We work with clients and their tax professionals to provide a coordinated solution in line with the overall plan.

    • Estate Planning & Trust Services

      Our team of estate planning attorneys and trust professionals within Johnson Trust Company provide counsel to ensure the right decisions are made to preserve and transfer your wealth over time.

    • Asset Protection & Insurance

      We focus on balancing clients’ risk exposures and current protections to mitigate the impact of unforeseen events on their financial goals.

    • Corporate Retirement Plans

      Our dedicated in-house team oversees our retirement plan practice, which includes a process for selecting and monitoring plan investments. Our approach is similar to that of our Wealth Management team’s approach: we focus on educating and guiding plan participants to the most effective way to utilize their 401K investments.

    • Business Transitions

      From helping to formulate a financial plan for the windfall that comes with selling a business, to providing corporate guidance, we work closely with business owners to create and implement solid financial strategies. The earlier we can get involved, the greater impact we can make. Our Johnson Trust Company provides guidance pertaining to efficient tax planning, charitable planning, and family legacy planning.

    • ESOP Clients

      As an employee-owned firm ourselves, we have a unique perspective and deep understanding of employee-owned businesses. This makes us great partners to help guide the impact and success that Employee Stock Ownership Plans can have in your organization.

  • Explore our institutional investment services

    Our disciplined approach to asset management dates back to our beginnings and our founder, Tim Johnson. Our firm was founded from his desire to put his values into practice and merge proven portfolio management strategies with his genuine interest in helping people and institutions. We still carry forth this mission today, providing customized solutions for institutions through our Johnson Asset Management group. This team works closely with our clients to create and implement a long-term plan for your organization that will align your current needs and future goals.
