A new form of transaction authentication has emerged. A small but growing contingent of participants are recording transactions on an electronic public record known as the “blockchain”.1 2 This may eventually replace much of the global transaction “validation” and “authentication” process. If this occurs, it could massively impact the banking and legal institutions we have […]

“Friendships are forged out of shared experiences, celebrating successes, and navigating crises. For many years, Chris has been my friend, as well as a partner, colleague, mentor, sounding board and great supporter. Neither miles nor years have diminished our ability to have a conversation or gain an understanding of new areas of thought from each other.
Throughout his successful career, Chris has always had his family, friends and clients at the forefront of his thoughts and actions. Trust has to be earned, and Chris has earned my unwavering trust through all of his endeavors. His ability to listen is one of his most valuable traits. Chris is able to listen and then understands the needs of his clients in a remarkable way. As you will see, his writing aptitude brings to each a way of ‘seeing’ what is and what can be.”

"If you’re an athlete you’re familiar with the idea of being ‘in the zone’. Musicians call it being ‘in the pocket’. It’s that condition where you’ve been doing something so well for so long that success is not only expected but almost assured. That’s where Chris Poch is as a financial advisor. There’s not a market condition he hasn’t seen, there’s not a family dynamic he hasn’t navigated, and there’s not a significant portfolio risk or opportunity he hasn’t considered. Chris has advised our family office for more than 20 years and at this unprecedented moment of political and technological volatility we are relying on his counsel more than ever."

"I’ve known Chris Poch for over 30 years, and from the very beginning, his honesty, confidence, intelligence, and client-first approach stood out. When a close friend needed trusted financial guidance, Chris was the first person I recommended – out of more than a hundred advisors. I have just as much confidence in him today as I did back then."

"I met Chris about 15 years ago at an investment luncheon where I was his guest. Over the years, our personal relationship has evolved from casual investment acquaintance to respected advisor to client to best friend as he transitioned from wire house, bulge bracket brokerages to his own firm. He approaches his financial advisor role with a realistic long-term capital preservation and growth perspective that is focuses on profitable growing capital light and dividend paying companies. He communicates with us regularly and is a great listener and a curious questioner. He is open to new ideas and is constantly striving to improve his investment and relationship knowledge. As a result of his professionalism and personal style, we have recently named him as the Successor Trustee for our Family Trust.
Our family has complete Trust and Confidence that Chris will always give his best advice and act in our best interest. We are thankful that he accepted us a client and feel blessed to have a professional and personal relationship with Chris."

"Nearly ten years ago, a thoughtful introduction from a close friend brought Chris into our lives. Recognizing the significant growth of our net worth, we realized the urgent need for an experienced wealth manager specializing in long-term investment strategies and retirement planning to provide us with comprehensive guidance and structure for our financial future.
Since then, Chris, who has spent decades successfully managing wealth for high-net-worth families, has been a steadfast anchor for our family. His calm demeanor and clear, insightful communication have been particularly reassuring during turbulent market conditions. Additionally, he has been proactive in addressing our evolving estate planning needs, ensuring our family’s future is secure. Chris has truly become a trusted advisor and an integral part of our lives. His reliable and unwavering guidance has had a transformative impact on us."
