Questionnaire
Part of what makes Pearson Hall, Inc. an effective planning solution is our ability to look at the entirety of your financial situation and show you the correlation between your ownership of assets and how and when they are taxed. From the income tax return to the estate planning documents, what you own and how you own it will play a critical role, not only in the investment return of the asset, but also the cost of ownership and then at some future date, the sale or transfer, either by gift or the distribution through your estate. Too often we have seen really good estate and tax planning documents that are completely undermined at death because the assets were not titled properly in life.

Park Ridge Asset Management is a registered investment advisor in Raleigh, North Carolina. Our goal is to deliver objective and sophisticated advice on a fully discretionary basis to both individual and institutional investors. Our firm was started as a result of the partners’ belief that apart from the largest investors, most individuals and institutions were not receiving the quality of advice and service that they deserved. These investors are all too often forced to deal with a salesperson or relationship manager, rather than a true investment professional.
At Park Ridge Asset Management, our clients will work directly with the investment professional managing their account. We review each client’s situation from a unique perspective. Rather than trying to force our clients into pre-defined solutions or products, we develop a customized investment plan for each of our clients that include carefully constructed portfolios using a disciplined investment process. This process includes:
- Optimizing portfolios based on each client’s unique situation using dynamic asset allocation modeling
- Identifying the most appropriate investment solutions, which includes the use of investment managers that we expect to consistently outperform the market and their peers
- A broad focus on risk management to smooth out portfolio returns
