Wingate Group, Inc

Forging Your Financial Future

Integrity. Dedication. Accountability. An Advisor Who Puts Your Best Interests First.

At The Wingate Group, everything we do is driven by one thing – your best interests. In our role as your financial advocate, we take time to get to know you, your family, your hopes and goals for the future, and any challenges that may stand in your way. We use this information to develop custom strategies specifically designed to help achieve your version of retirement and financial success. 


We support you in living a comfortable life today while working toward a more stable (or could use protected) retirement. To do so, we employ a wide range of strategies to not only build but also protect your wealth. As you near retirement, we employ a variety of strategies to establish a monthly source of income you can’t outlive*. We are well-versed in the challenges faced by retirees and can help you navigate potential risks to your wealth you may not even realize you face. 


Why work with The Wingate Group? Because we give you the confidence of knowing you have a dedicated, experienced advocate in your corner. It’s that simple.

Our Process

Our disciplined approach helps ensure no detail is overlooked as we develop custom financial and retirement strategies to meet your needs.

Step 1 - Get To Know You

We begin by conducting a face-to-face meeting, either in person or via video conference. In this meeting, we strive to get to know you, your family, your current financial situation, your goals for the future and any challenges you may face on the path toward achieving a successful retirement. 


Through a series of follow-up calls, we begin taking inventory of all your accounts, assets, insurance policies, investments and more. It’s only once we truly understand where you stand today that we can help you get to where you want to be in the future.

Step 2 - Draft a Plan

Using the information gathered in Step 1, we begin drafting a preliminary financial plan and retirement strategy as a starting point for future discussions. We meet again to present you with our ideas, ask for your input and make any necessary changes to ensure we fully address your current and future needs. 

Step 3 - Implement

Once you are fully comfortable with and informed about your financial plan, we take the necessary steps to implement it. This includes coordinating asset transfers and making any necessary adjustments to your portfolio’s asset allocation. We walk you through any paperwork and help ensure a smooth transition. Now, you’re up and running!

Step 4 - Monitor and Adjust

The implementation of your financial plan is just the beginning of our relationship. Ongoing, we continuously monitor your investment performance, progress toward your goals and any life changes that may necessitate a modification to your plan. We proactively recommend adjustments as necessary due to your personal financial situation, changing goals, economic factors and market forces. 


We continue to meet with you on a regular basis in order to remain informed about your life and goals, and to review your financial progress.

Our Team

We give you the confidence of knowing you have a dedicated, experienced advocate putting your best interest first.
