Are you Fee-Only & how do you get paid?

Yes!  DecisionPoint’s revenue is solely derived from the fees that clients pay them directly. This direct compensation is paid via an asset management fee, or a planning and consulting fee.  Asset management fees are debited from the managed accounts on a quarterly basis. Planning and consulting fees are generally invoiced directly to the client. 


If a financial advisor is not fee-only, it can be challenging for them to act as true fiduciaries to their clients because they may be incentivized to sell you one financial product over another. 


Do you work virtually?

Yes!  Accessibility to us and to our team of CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professionals is our highest priority. Our offices are located in Mesa, AZ and Gig Harbor, WA. The majority of the financial planning that we offer is done ideally in person, but we are well equipped to meet with clients virtually through applications like Zoom. When scheduling time with us to review your retirement account, or go through the financial planning process, we try very hard to accommodate your schedule and your preference for meeting virtually or in person.

What is your investment approach?

We take a very disciplined and strategic approach to money management. View the “Investment Management” tab within the services dropdown to learn more.

How accessible is the DecisionPoint team?

We believe that accessibility to us is the minimum standard of a high quality client experience.  We work as a team to ensure that each client’s needs are met in an expeditious manner.  Our clients have the ability to call, text, and email their dedicated advisors and client services support staff to request transactions, ask questions, and schedule appointments.  We take pride in our ability to respond to those requests in a timely manner.


Who is Charles Schwab?

Charles Schwab is one of the largest financial services companies in the Untied States providing custodial and trading services to thousands of independent Registered Investment Advisory firms around the Country.  Charles Schwab and TD Ameritrade acquired TDA in 2019 and it is anticipated that the acquisition will be complete in the 4th quarter of 2023.


DecisionPoint primarily utilizes Charles Schwab to custody all of our clients’ account assets.  This is an important security feature for our clients because it means that DecisionPoint can never take physical custody of your money and your investments.

Where do I access my account(s)?

DecisionPoint clients have two ways to access their account information.  The first is by logging in directly to your account held at  Charles Schwab.  The second is by logging in to your DecisionPoint portal.  Both of these sites can be a reached through the “Client Login” link in the top right corner of our website.  


Your DecisionPoint Client Portal is specifically designed to provide you with historical performance data for all of your accounts.  This is also where you will find all of your current and historical performance reports and our quarterly client letters


By logging in directly to your Charles Schwab account you will be able to find transactional data, monthly statements, and tax documents.
