Welcome to the Family
Al Procaccino II, a Certified Financial Fiduciary®, Certified Financial Planner™, Certified Fund Specialist®, Certified Digital Asset Advisor™ and former awarded 5 Star rated Morningstar Institutional Money Manager, heads up the professional team at Castle Financial which views financial planning as more than simply planning for retirement. It’s about working to achieve short and long-term goals and helping protect the most important things in your life.
Financial & Retirement Planning
Financial planning for rising generations and those on the road to retirement can be tricky to navigate financially. We work closely with you to develop a personalized plan utilizing various investments and strategies to coordinate with employer-sponsored plans and Social Security to provide retirement income that will last your lifetime. We help our clients understand the difference between investing for retirement versus investing in retirement which is critically important to achieving lifetime financial goals.
Risk Management
At Castle Financial we work with you to manage your risk exposure. We do this through conducting a thorough review of your insurances and also develop a plan to effectively protect you and your family. Included in our risk management evaluation is the development of strategies for asset protection from the costs of long-term care know as elder law planning. We take a risk-averse approach to Wealth Management by also employing a "tactical" investment strategy portfolio overlay to potentially make money in both up and down markets.
Investment Management
Managing our valued clients investments is based on objective, unbiased advice deeply informed by the clients’ needs and financial goals. We have no commitment or obligation to any particular investment company. We structure portfolios with leading money managers from some of the oldest and most distinguished institutions in the world and select money managers by utilizing a rigorous screening process based on strict and specific criteria. We measure our success based on our ability to achieve the returns that relate to our client's objectives rather than how returns compare to market indices.
