In brief
Integrated wealth management means your investments, financial plan, and tax strategy are designed and managed together by advisors who share the same view of your complete financial picture - rather than siloed across separate firms that rarely communicate.
The problem with fragmented advice
Many affluent households work with an investment manager, a CPA, and perhaps an estate attorney - but no one holds the full picture. Tax consequences of portfolio moves go unreviewed. Estate documents drift from actual holdings. Cash sits idle because no one owns liquidity planning end-to-end.
The gaps between advisors are where inefficiencies hide.
What integration looks like in practice
At Montreux, CFA-led investment management, comprehensive financial planning, and CPA-led tax services operate as one coordinated strategy. Roth conversions, charitable giving, entity structure, and portfolio positioning are evaluated together.
The objective is not more products - it is fewer blind spots.
Who benefits most
Integration matters most when your financial life is complex: multiple entities, partnership K-1s, concentrated stock, succession planning, or multi-generational wealth transfer.
