About

Destination Wealth Management serves individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and other business entities. The firm provides discretionary investment management and financial planning and coordinates estate‑planning and tax services through third‑party strategic partners for clients who meet the firm’s eligibility criteria.

Investment approach is framed around asset allocation and a suite of model portfolios that blend equities, fixed income, ETFs, alternative investments, and, where appropriate, options and sub‑advisers to implement specific strategies. The brochure describes these model portfolios and notes the firm presents hypothetical performance for marketing or illustrative purposes, and it documents committee review and ongoing due diligence for alternative investments offered to clients.

Distinctive features in the brochure include a curated alternative investment program in which all alternatives are third‑party managed, presented to an Investment Policy Committee for approval and subject to ongoing review. The firm also discloses operational practices relevant to client conflicts and execution — for example, it states it does not use soft‑dollar arrangements, participates in custodian referral programs, and offers coordinated estate and tax services via outside professionals.
