Team Strength: Michigan

THE MEANING BEHIND YOUR MONEY: A PERSONALIZED APPROACH TO MANAGING YOUR ASSETS

Located near and serving the economically diverse and dynamic Detroit metropolitan area, our Private Wealth Advisors team in Michigan is an outgrowth of First Merchants Bank's 2018 acquisition of Monroe Bank & Trust. Managing over $700m in assets, our attentive, skilled, and expert advisors continue to serve the Monroe area, as well as the Downriver, Western Wayne, Oakland County, and Ann Arbor regions.

Wealth management is complicated.

Even setting aside the intricate intersection of tax, accounting, and legal factors, there’s still another equally elaborate element: protecting and building your assets is deeply emotional.

Between the lines of your balance sheet or hiding somewhere in your holding is a strong and loving desire to protect your family and their future, or to ensure the legacy of those who built the wealth you now oversee.

Your First Merchants Private Wealth team understands this delicate balance. It’s why our first action is to listen. Yes, we’ll have a few conscientious, clarifying questions, but all for the end purpose of understanding the finite details of your assets as well as the infinite hopes and dreams behind them.

Taking all we’ve heard into consideration, we formulate your adaptive plan. It will be based on solid and time-tested strategies, but with the flexibility to respond to changing times and shifting market factors. We’ll also consult with external legal and financial experts as needed, testing and refining your plan based on their expertise and viewpoints.

Your First Merchants Private Wealth team has the talent, experience, and resources needed to attentively craft the ideal plan for securing your family’s future by preserving and growing your assets. We’ll accomplish this by standing committed to a single goal: helping you prosper.
