Private Banking & Investment Group

Discipline is the foundation of successful investing, and vision is its driver. The Private Wealth Advisors of the Private Banking and Investment Group combine the discipline to diversify, rebalance and closely monitor your investment results with the vision to customize investing strategies designed to help take you where you want to go.

Your Private Wealth Advisor will craft detailed, comprehensive strategies based on a wide variety of considerations, including your timeline, risk threshold, tax situation, personal values, portfolio objectives, income sources and current holdings. He or she will also work closely with you to help select from among the best investment strategies in the world, either inside or outside the firm, relying on the same rigorous quantitative and qualitative processes used for Merrill Lynch's top institutional clients. And your Private Wealth Advisor will continually monitor and review your portfolio's performance to help determine if you're on track to achieve your life, wealth and legacy objectives.

Throughout the process, your Private Wealth Advisor will be drawing on the renowned capabilities of BofA Merrill Lynch Global Research, capitalizing on our global scale to stay abreast of changing market conditions. Your portfolio may include traditional as well as alternative investments, some of which are available exclusively to Private Banking and Investment Group clients. The result is a dynamic investment portfolio that is timely and timeless — reflective of the daily conditions of the marketplace, yet grounded in sound market fundamentals.

Values-Based Investing Comes of Age

Diversification, asset allocation and rebalancing do not assure a profit or protect against loss. Rebalancing may trigger a tax event.

Neither Merrill Lynch nor its financial advisors provide tax, accounting or legal advice. Clients should review any planned financial transactions or arrangements that may have tax, accounting or legal implications with their personal professional advisors.
