Client tenures precede the formation of Intelligent Capitalworks in 2005.

It’s not about the firm and how big it is.
It’s about long-term client success.
One client at a time.

Many large investment and advisory firms lead with and promote the billions of assets they have under management as a core strength to close new business and drive the growth and value of their firms.

We don’t share that obsession.

We designed and built Intelligent Capitalworks to cultivate core professional advisor strengths to better serve families and individuals and help them accomplish more. We are committed to better, deeper, more focused and more present relationships.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Wealth Planning, Advice and Counsel

Client Advisor Team Development

02

No one feels fully prepared when stepping into the endeavor of becoming the CEO of their wealth for the first time. It is a workspace of multiple disciplines in multiple dimensions. We are C-Suite professionals purpose-focused to help you gain the benefits from working with a professional inter-disciplinary wealth management team. We are educated, trained and experienced for this work.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Investment Management

03

If you don't get this right, nothing else matters. Precious few plans will succeed without saving and long-term, after-tax compounding of your investment returns. We help position your investments and accounts to benefit from after-tax, risk-managed, long-term wealth compounding. We tailor and manage separate accounts of individual securities diversified for each client.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Tax Planning and Strategy

04

The number of tax regimes we are all faced with is mind-boggling. We help address the computational complexity of multiple layers of taxation. We help you consider how to best structure the investments you make and your exit strategy before you commit capital. We help you improve your asset location strategies to minimize your tax costs and improve your overall tax efficiency and effectiveness.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Exit and Retirement Planning

05

Whether you’re preparing to sell or transfer your ownership in your largest asset – your privately held business, or you’re preparing for retirement from your career, we help you develop your vision for what’s next. We help you maximize value to you, minimize your taxes in transition and retirement and plan and schedule the cash flow you’ll need. We help you paint the picture and curate your plan.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Risk Survey and Insurance Planning

06

Risk and insurance touches every aspect of personal and business life. Risks to your life, health, property, livelihood and ability to work, profession, personal data . . . life is full of risks. Insurance helps keep you whole when bad things occasionally happen. We don’t sell insurance. We help develop, organize and manage your risk matrix and protection strategies.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Budget and Saving Management

07

You will either need to save from the money you earn, the money you inherit, or possibly both, and invest to replace your earned income. Some of us will be fortunate enough to inherit, but most of us will need to save from the money we earn and invest it for the day when we wish to stop working or are no longer able to work. We help you track and manage your expenses and achieve your saving goals.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Cash and Liquidity Management

08

Active cash management and credit facilities support stable and healthy cash flow management. We help you maintain control over lumpy or mismatched timing of cash flows, unexpected cash flow reductions or losses, or the headwinds of unexpected or increased expenditures. We help you manage cash and liquidity to meet your financial obligations and improve your financial efficiency.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Trust and Estate Planning

09

Planning for the protection of you and your family in all phases of your life and the successful transfer of your estate helps contribute to the legacy of your life’s work. Without a plan, you expose you and your family to unnecessary risks and forfeit protections and opportunities for more desirable outcomes. We help you express and protect your wishes and protect you and your family from less desirable outcomes.

It's just part of what we do.

CONSIDER EVERYTHING

Philanthropic and Legacy Planning

10

Philanthropic and legacy planning helps enable you to expand your estate planning effort with a mosaic of values, meaning, guidance, purpose and responsibility for your posterity and matters that are of lasting importance to you. We help you plan and express your philanthropic intent while minimizing administrative complexity. We help you manage your philanthropic investments and commitments.

It's just part of what we do.
