Portfolio & Advisory Services
Seaside Wealth Management provides customized portfolio management and investment advice to clients with a wide variety of investment objects and risk tolerances. Unlike many other banks and financial service firms, Seaside Wealth Management embraces an open architecture in the selection process of asset managers. This means that we do not offer internally produced asset management products. We believe that it is difficult to be objective and maintain our clients' best interest if we sell our own products. Instead, we focus our considerable resources and talent on researching and selecting the asset mangers who are best able to accomplish your unique financial goals and individual needs. In constructing your portfolio we may engage:
- Separate Account Managers
- No Load Mutual Funds
- Exchange Trade Funds
- Alternative Investment Strategies
Custody Services

- Safekeeping of assets
- Low cost trade settlement

About Seaside Elite Process
We have created an approach for managing your wealth that is unique in the market. We call our style "Seaside Elite." Seaside Elite is a simple term used to describe the four-stage program that drives our investment process: Client Discovery, Asset Allocation, Asset Manager Selection and Controlling & Monitoring. Our customized style yields unique, needs-based solutions designed specifically for your financial goals and desires. One of the most significant ways we're different from the vast majority of financial advisors is that we do not offer any internally produced investment products to our clients. We believe that it is impossible to be objective and represent our clients' best interests if we sell our own products. Instead, we focus our considerable resources and talent on researching and selecting those asset managers who are best able to accomplish your unique financial goals. We may find those resources in large nationally recognized investment firms or in small regional boutiques. While Seaside Elite is a formal approach to investing, it is fluid in its execution. We will lead you through each of the four steps within Seaside Elite with varying degrees of input and assistance, depending on your comfort level and desires.
