Donald M. Roy, CFP®-Branch Manager and Registered Principal, Securities America, Inc.
Branch Owner / Registered Principal Branch Manager
Twenty-two years ago Don left the banking industry to open an Investment and Financial Planning practice with his wife. Don is an independent advisor who develops and implements financial strategies and finds solutions to comprehensive financial planning needs. He does this for individuals and business owners and specializes in the design and implementation of Qualified Retirement Plans for private industry and nonprofit organizations.
When conducting business Don employs a “Wealth Management Process” (WMP) that includes a discovery session where data is gathered; strategies are formed and a plan is implemented. WMP is an ongoing process, not a one-time event. That’s why Don actively manages his clients’ business by monitoring progress and suggesting modifications if prudent. Don believes the WMP is especially necessary in times of economic volatility and ever changing rules and regulations.
Along with Don’s credentials and experience, two other factors are essential to the success of his business; expertly trained personnel who provide optimum client service and a substantial investment in technology. To ensure excellent service, each client is given a Personal Service Representative (PSR) who should be contacted for any service related issues. Having friendly, skilled staff, responding to client needs other than investment advice, allows Don time for research and due diligence. His investment in state of the art technology gives him the ability to:
- Display quality visual presentations of a client’s portfolio on a large 42” HD monitor.
- Use specialized software to pose “what if” scenarios and see the effects on a portfolio. This option truly helps when “Planning a Brighter Future.”
- Offer clients complete electronic access to their accounts held through him from any place in the world.
- Videoconference and Web cast
