Cota St. Portfolio Advisory Services
Portfolio Advisory Services is a financial planning service that can provide employees with tailored savings and investing advice to help them reach their retirement goals. The service uses personal data to help employees decide how much to save, when to retire and start collecting Social Security, and build custom Managed Portfolios.
Personalized Managed Portfolios
With more complex data inputs and the ability to collect more data on an automated basis, we can offer personalized portfolios that may create advantages over typical Target and Risk-based models.
In partnership with Morningstar®, our Managed Account Program offers customized retirement strategies for each participant. You can provide employees with access to personalized, professionally managed portfolios designed to help them stay on track to meet their goals.
