About Us
Our Approach

Our team believes successful wealth management comes from examining how the various elements of your financial life work together. Key factors to consider may include the retirement lifestyle you envision, how you would like your wealth to impact your family, your tolerance for risk, liquidity needs, time horizon—and, of course, your personal goals. What arises from this process is a tailored financial strategy that encompasses your life as well as your finances. Our wealth management process is continuous, evolving with you as your needs and goals change. The process breaks down what may seem complex into simple, understandable terms. It places you at the center of our efforts—helping to preserve, grow and distribute your wealth based on your unique objectives.

We believe successful long-term investing is goal oriented and strategy driven. Our process helps us understand your needs and be proactive throughout our relationship. The Norman & Young Group follows a disciplined, five-step protocol to gather information about you, your family and your life; sharpen your financial vision; and organize a thoughtful strategy that ultimately helps us to suggest investments with the potential to fulfill your needs while pursuing your goals.
