At Charles Schwab, we are able to customize a plan that’s right for each individual. Our clients can be certain that their portfolio is set up correctly from the beginning and adjusted accordingly.” Charles Schwab offers several different programs for investors based on their investment and financial objectives. Michael explains, “We work with our clients in a variety of ways. One of which is self-directed, where the client may have a brokerage account, picking and choosing their own investments. It can be difficult to manage your own portfolio, because many times you think with your heart and not your mind. However, individuals wanting to manage their own finances can still do so through Charles Schwab, because we guide them in the right direction and help them understand how best to manage their own portfolio.” For those individuals looking to have their portfolio managed, Michael says, “We take the time to assess the client’s financial objectives and time horizons in order to find the program best suited for their needs and goals.” He notes that even in a managed program with Schwab, it’s very important for people to take the time to understand how their money is being managed. “People need to be involved in their portfolio. Therefore, we try to engage our clients no matter what program they are in. We do this by offering a variety of resources and regularly holding workshops on many different financial topics.” Michael notes an important key to success with all of their clients is the dependability and availability that Charles Schwab offers. “We meet with clients at least once a year, but often meet with them quarterly. It really depends on the client and how much attention they want when it comes to their portfolio.” In addition, Charles Schwab provides 24/7 phone support from trained professionals.
