From the President – February 2017

In Missouri, a new Governor has recently taken office, and as the world watched, a new President has been sworn in. Both are outsiders, vowing to disrupt the politics-as-usual manner of operating at the state…

From the President – November 2016

This year, we witnessed a presidential election which, in the minds of many, was unlike any we’d ever seen. There was very passionate debate, as well as a great deal of fear surrounding both candidates. Many parents, myself included, experienced their children becoming aware of the political process for the first time, and asking pointed questions about a variety of…

In 2015, Krilogy embarked on a journey to increase our footprint in the St. Louis region, and provide clients throughout the area with greater access to service. The first step on that path was the opening of Krilogy St. Charles, which has grown 40% over the last year under the leadership of Michael Brown. Last month, the journey continued as…

From the President – May 2016

There’s been a good deal of talk in the industry and in the media regarding the recent Department of Labor Fiduciary Rule for retirement accounts, including individual retirement accounts (IRAs). The final rule was passed earlier this month, and it requires advisors to serve as a fiduciary for clients, which means they’re required to put their clients’ interests first. It…

While the very idea of volatility may strike fear in the minds of investors, we’ve found that there’s a way to derail that fear – a plan. Clients who are clear about their financial plan, who know what their risk tolerance…

From the President – November 2015

Every successful effort starts with a good, strong relationship with a partner who supports you and works hard to help you accomplish great things. These types of relationships are something that we’re very proud of here at Krilogy, the strength of which I was reminded of while reviewing the results of a recent client survey.

From the President – Special 2015 Edition Newsletter

A few years ago, Krilogy Team Lead Michael Brown approached me with a vision, and a goal for what he wanted to accomplish at Krilogy. That goal was to open a second Krilogy office in his hometown, St. Charles County, where his roots run deep and he works hard to serve the community through a number of leadership positions and…

From the President – May 2015

Letter from the President – March 2015

When we meet new people, we’re often asked: “What’s the difference between Krilogy and other firms?” While the answer is easy to articulate from a tactical perspective, the real difference is in the experience. Tactically, because we’re wealth managers, we have a higher level of fiduciary responsibility than a traditional financial advisor. We regularly manage your plan, frequently monitoring it…
