comprehensive
wealth management services
Our first priority is to ensure that all of your investments, whether managed by McKinley
Carter or not, are part of a comprehensive investment strategy that complements the
other aspects of your financial life. Designed to minimize volatility while producing the
growth needed to achieve your personal goals, our strategic approach to investments
is grounded in rigorous, periodic assessments. These assessments explore your entire
financial situation and employ the sophisticated, yet flexible, investment tactics needed
to advance both your short and long-term objectives.
At McKinley Carter, we help clients assess how much of their lifestyle they may maintain
at different points in the future from their savings alone. These periodic assessments
help you understand what you need to do to be “on track” for a secure retirement, and
enable you to make informed and confident decisions about the various life choices that
can significantly impact your financial future.

eSTATe PLAnnInG & TRuST SeRvICeS
One of the reasons our clients are compelled to build and protect their wealth is to
help future generations realize their personal aspirations. We help clients specify their
intergenerational goals and coordinate the people needed to handle complex estate-
related matters. We also facilitate communications between and within families in order
to prudently manage family assets in a manner that strengthens family harmony over
the long-term.
BAnKInG & DeBT SeRvICeS
McKinley Carter advisors can help secure the banking services you need, whether
this involves borrowing money, accessing cash when you need it, or handling
administrative matters such as paying bills and preparing tax returns.
For clients who already have loans, we evaluate ways to reduce interest and
administrative costs, while helping determine what costs and benefits can be
realized by pre-payment.

RISK MAnAGeMenT
Most people need to consider the potential adverse impact of death, disability, liability,
and taxes on their accumulated financial holdings. Whether insuring against lost income
or long-term care expenses, facilitating smooth business transitions, avoiding paying
unnecessary taxes, or reducing the risk of property and casualty losses, we can help you
design the strategies to manage risk in today’s increasingly complex and litigious world.
At McKinley Carter, wealth management means helping you make sure that you are doing
all you can to manage your financial life in a way that advances your personal goals and
ambitions. This requires the expertise to listen, learn, coordinate, and inspire the actions
needed to build the strongest possible financial future for you, your family, and the causes
you care deeply about.

We provide a dedicated team and a comprehensive range of services to meet your
business’ retirement plan needs. We know plan design, vendor selection, and investment
monitoring can be confusing. Some plans might appear to be inexpensive on the surface,
but closer examination can reveal complicated and sometimes misleading fee structures
that may not be in your best interest.
The experienced retirement plan team at McKinley Carter brings value through objective
advice, and seeks the lowest total plan costs possible. We can help you identify your
fiduciary responsibilities, analyze and reduce plan expenses, and optimize investment
options for your employees. Together, we will build a qualified fiduciary advisor relationship
that develops management training and provides employee education tools for
administering the plans provided by your organization.
FInAnCIAL eDuCATIOn
As an employer, you often struggle to find talented individuals. Once you’ve built your
workforce, retaining employees is paramount to your continued success, and offering
financial education can be a valuable benefit.
Many employees expect personal financial guidance from their employers as they
receive their plan information. We know navigating the potential investment options
can be confusing, and our workplace education team can help by designing and
delivering a relevant program to ensure investment objectives are met.

By developing and customizing a clearly defined program, we can assist your finance
committee or trustees in fulfilling their fiduciary responsibilities.
Our approach involves a straightforward, four-step process:
1. Identify your organization’s investment goals
2. Develop a comprehensive asset allocation strategy
3. Recommend appropriate investment managers
4. Monitor, evaluate, and report your portfolio’s overall performance
Most importantly, we provide an unbiased approach that may not be available through
a direct relationship with any single money manager, bank, or trust department, helping
your organization sustain its mission and ensure financial independence.

We believe that conducting our business with the highest ethical standards – honesty,
integrity, and professionalism – is the foundation for lifelong relationships with our clients.
We accomplish these standards by being:
independent: As an independent advisor, we have the autonomy to help you find the
best possible financial services and products to care for your wealth.
proactive: Our reviews and continuous communication are focused on helping you
and others take the actions needed to protect and enhance your financial well-being.
objective: Our fees are fully disclosed and discussed in advance. Legally obligated
to put your interests first, we are not biased by commissions or other transaction-based
forms of compensation.
