Financial Advisors in San Francisco, California (San Francisco County)

At Blossom Wealth Management, we do more than just help families accumulate assets and transfer those assets to the next generation. We also collaborate with the family’s team of professional advisors. Most importantly, we bring in resources when appropriate. We make sophisticated and confidential connections for clients interested in anything from luxury travel, lifestyle ventures (art, aircraft and watercraft) to agricultural holdings (wineries, farms and ranches). We understand that some investments go beyond monetary return. They provide an oasis for their owners.... See More

Financial Perspectives is an independent, fee-only financial advisory firm with two offices conveniently located in the San Francisco bay area. We provide unbiased advice for every aspect of your financial life. Recognizing that everyone is unique in their needs and desires, we take the time to get to fully know and understand what is important to our clients. Above all, we pride ourselves on maintaining long-term, lasting relationships built on integrity and fostered by trust.

As a provider of broad-based financial advice, our primary focus remains on retirement and investment management. Through our specialization in these areas, we bring our expertise to bear on helping clients achieve the core wealth objectives of asset accumulation, capital preservation, income generation and the worry-free transference of wealth.

With the frantic pace of today’s lifestyle, people may find they have neither the time, inclination nor knowledge base to best handle the financial aspect of their lives. Unfortunately neglect can be detrimental to the success of obtaining your objectives. Ultimately we provide clients with the freedom to concentrate on the more important things in life – like family, personal success and the pursuit of their own passion – while we spearhead the endeavor of meeting their financial goals.

The recent market collapse has left investors facing an uphill battle. Losses in their accounts have left them questioning whether or not they can meet their financial goals. As a result, people are looking to protect the assets they have left and limit future losses. We have entered an unprecedented time in history that is comparable to nothing we have experienced in the past. To survive and thrive, one will need to be open to new ideas that are forward thinking and will address what lies ahead. What has worked in the past will not necessarily be successful going forward. As such, we offer unique perspectives and strategies to help you guide you through this uncharted territory.... See More

Griffin Black, Inc. offers integrated, fee-only financial advisory services focused on helping clients improve the quality of their lives. Sound investment management is a crucial component of our practice, but it is only one part. We also help clients better understand and manage their personal cash flow. We help them analyze and, where possible, lower their financial risk. We seek to reduce the complexity as well as to improve the transparency of their finances, helping them "take back control" of their lives. Though our clients are all different, we specialize in working with professional & executive women (and their families) and small business owners.
Our clients typically have portfolios that range from $500,000 to $2,000,000. We can, however, accommodate younger clients who are working to accumulate an asset base. Though most of our work is done on a retainer basis, we are also happy to do project work for clients who may be looking for a more limited engagement. Please contact us if you would like to schedule a complementary one-hour consultation to discuss your needs.... See More
