LIFE IS ART!

WHAT WE DO
COMBINING THE ART AND SCIENCE OF PLANNING
Like any good financial planner, we put together the charts, graphs and simulations to identify issues, review alternatives, recommend solutions, and manage implementation with meticulous attention.
Most people think that financial planning ends there…with the science. However, the true power of financial planning is the art. It’s everything that happens after a plan is set in motion. It’s the strategic bobbing and weaving around the opportunities and obstacles that we encounter along our life’s journey.
As financial planners who are attuned to both the science and art of planning, our purpose is to help you simplify your life, plan your financial journey, and navigate the changes along the way in order to reach your destination.
Pomfret Financial is independently‐owned, and not tied to any one company, product or provider. We guide you according to the priorities you establish and then help you customize and integrate the right strategies and tools for each phase of your personal and business life.
CUSTOMIZED & INTEGRATED PLANNING STRATEGIES
PERSONAL PLANNING
We assist families, professionals and business owners with risk management planning and tax‐efficient accumulation strategies. With a broad view of the path to your destination, we take a unique planning approach to help guide you at each point along your financial journey…from accumulating and protecting your wealth for specific goals, retirement planning, and preserving your wealth for future generations.
BUSINESS PLANNING
For business owners, we use an integrated approach to helping you accumulate wealth for a specific goal, ensure the continuation of your business, minimize taxes, plan for retirement, and create an executive benefit program to attract and retain your best employees. Throughout the process, we customize a variety of proprietary tools and processes to help you achieve your objectives.
CORPORATE-SPONSORED BENEFITS
We specialize in the custom design and administration of corporately‐sponsored employee and executive benefit programs for closely‐held private and public companies and not‐for‐profit organizations across the U.S.

OUR PEOPLE MAKE US WHO WE ARE
Our team is made up of skilled and experienced professionals from a variety of financial disciplines working together to provide seamless, tax‐efficient solutions for helping you optimize your business and personal financial affairs. We have team members onsite at our main office in Charlotte, as well as an external support network of specialists in business, tax, retirement, financial, and insurance planning.
