WHY BROADWEALTH
Intentional: My practice intentionally is limited. Clients gain the attention and intimacy of a boutique firm while still enjoying the benefits of a large, robust operation.
Sophisticated: BroadWealth’s tech stack has the same industry-leading technologies and research used by the largest institutional investment firms. Yes, BroadWealth is focused and intimate but still has the big horsepower.
Trusted: Assets are held at well-known custodians (typically Fidelity) and invested in low-cost, tax-conscious funds, including those from Dimensional Fund Advisors (not accessible to retail investors).
Independent: We are not beholden to any one investment company.
Engaged: When starting BroadWealth, I wanted to bring my 20+ years of experience to clients without being engulfed by operational issues. I hired Dynamic Advisor Solutions for back-office support. To learn more, visit Dynamic.
Meet Jennifer
That’s what drew me mid-career into the investment world. As my husband and I started out, both knew that investing, tax laws, insurance, etc. were important. Instinctively analytical and, organized, I expected to manage our financial affairs fairly easily but felt surprisingly crippled. The jargon was overwhelming and I could never find a consolidated source for information, never mind systems or tools, to support analysis and decision-making. Then, a long-time friend unexpectedly recruited me, mid-career, to his investment firm. Fortunately, the transition felt natural and fed my insatiable curiosity about personal financial topics. I finally got to start knowing.
That is, feel deeply connected to my work. My colleagues and work were always terrific, but the work didn’t drive meaning. Still at the same investment firm, I eventually started working with families and individuals. Helping a client gain financial knowledge and confidence, feel in control, and achieve goals proved tremendously rewarding. I loved it! Perfect combo of using my strengths and experience to help others.
Over time, I knew I wanted to eliminate all possible conflicts of interest and be able to provide the integrated broad services needed by certain types of clients. Based on first-hand personal and client experiences, I strongly believed deeper analysis and broader scope were not simply justified but essential to serve these types of clients in their best interests. Hence, BroadWealth was born.
In our family, my husband Mark Dougherty is an anesthesiologist for a surgi-center in the greater Boston area. We met in college and therefore have experienced together the long road of a medical career. We’re so fortunate to have talented, compassionate children. Our son recently graduated and began his career in computer science. Our daughter is a college athlete on a path she’ll soon determine. All four of our parents are in their 80’s. We love being with them and do our best to help despite the challenging distances. We spend much of our free time on tennis courts, bicycles, or the waters of Southern Maine or Miami, Florida, my native hometown.
