Who We Serve

Although we strive to deliver a universally consistent client experience, Bibler Finney Panfil recognizes that different walks of life often require different services.  The priorities of young professionals usually differ from those of retirees.  From executive services to business succession planning, our group has developed processes designed to guide different clients through life’s major milestones with confidence.  Read more below about the types of clients we serve most.

Professionals and Executives

Professionals – Our team works with a variety of professionals, including medical doctors, CPAs, attorneys, and corporate professionals – all of which have a unique basket of needs. We help structure planning, investments, estate and tax planning, 401(k) and defined benefit plans, liability management, benefits, succession planning, insurance, and more.

Executives – The details of executive compensation and benefits can be overwhelming. With this in mind, we specialize in working with C-suite executives of publicly traded companies. We also have a great deal of experience with Rule 144 employees, analysis of corporate benefit packages, planning, investments, estate and tax strategies, liquidity, liability management, and insurance through affiliates*.

Retirees

We specialize in working with successful, retiring individuals and have helped clients from all backgrounds retire confidently. For those nearing or already in retirement, we assist in the navigation through all the emotions, preconceived notions, behavioral pitfalls, and expectations. If you’re headed toward retirement, we believe it's extremely helpful for you to be educated about what to expect during the initial stages of retirement. Finding your balance between your past and future is very delicate, and it may sound strange, but most of the habits you form in order to have a successful retirement will change or bend once you retire.

For example, when you're working, you are always saving – this is referred to as the accumulation phase of life. Once you retire, you enter the distribution stage, a point at which you’re actually living off those funds and withdrawing them for things like daily living and travel. You need to be confident in your ability to make this adjustment, and it's essential to have a plan that can show you how the probability of success changes with this decision.

Another major issue is time management. Ask yourself a few questions: What will I do when retired? Who will I do it with? Do I share the same vision with that person? What activities will we do together, and what will we do separately? We can help educate you on just about any situation because we have been through such situations hundreds of times with our clients. You only have one chance to retire successfully, so why not walk that path with a team that has the experience and knowledge to help make it the best chapter of your life?
