About

Hartford Financial Management, Inc. advises individuals and families, trusts and estates, endowments and retirement plans, and serves institutional clients including banks, savings institutions, credit unions, and corporations. The firm provides comprehensive investment management and financial planning services, and for institutional clients offers pension plan consulting, investment policy design, and balance-sheet and capital-planning support.

HFM applies a financial‑planning style approach for family and individual clients, using written interviews to gather asset, income, and goals information and employing modeling and “what if” scenario analyses to develop and monitor plans. Portfolios are reviewed regularly with quarterly reports and annual reviews, and the firm generally manages client assets on a discretionary basis while relying primarily on fundamental analysis of secular and cyclical trends and, where appropriate, using derivatives such as covered options and futures.

Compared with many team firms, HFM’s profile is distinctive for its explicit work with banking and thrift institutions—providing interest‑rate risk management, balance‑sheet management, and director education—alongside its individual and foundation work. The brochure also documents the firm’s use of soft‑dollar research and investment periodicals, its delivery of educational/board workshops, and routine use of projection and scenario modeling in planning and performance reporting, while managing roughly $700 million in assets, almost entirely discretionary.
