Invested in the Community

Indianapolis, IN Focus Areas:

By definition, a financial planner is a qualified investment professional who works with individuals and corporations with the goal of sustaining and growing wealth to meet long-term financial objectives.

A financial advisor helps guide decision-making so you can get the most from your finances and assets. If you are going through major financial decisions, a financial advisor is likely the most competent person to help you through it.

Working with a financial advisor is essential in achieving your goals. A financial advisor will use a well-established and proven process to build strategies to help reach your goals.

SYM Financial Advisors aim to understand your priorities and act as lifelong partners to guide you through financial decisions (big and small) that keep your goals on track. SYM Financial has been serving the Indiana and Indianapolis area for over 40 years.

Do You Really Need A Financial Advisor?

Planning for your future and handling your finances doesn’t have to be difficult; you don’t have to do it alone.

Whether you need to make a significant financial decision, prepare for your child’s education, work toward retirement security, or plan your estate, financial advisors can help you immensely.

When it comes to your financial future, you should not leave it to chance nor address it with an off-the-shelf plan. We at SYM Financial Indianapolis aim to work with you and provide a financial plan that’s uniquely applicable to you.

We take into consideration your financial and personal priorities and use our knowledge to save, protect and grow your finances.

Asking the Right Questions

Our financial advisors know what questions to ask to get an accurate financial picture. To target your unique financial goals, we bring expertise, credentials, and genuine concern to the equation.

We consider all the important parts of the financial equation – your work, personal life, hobbies, lifestyle, etc. so we can get the whole picture and build an efficient financial plan.

Wealth Planning

Each person’s financial picture is unique. So, we make sure to produce personalized financial plans and strategies for our clients.

Significant events in life challenge one’s financial stance. Marriage, pregnancy, change of occupation, retirement, divorce or loss of a loved one – all these life events make one’s finances very fluid.

Our financial advisors collaborate with you – from tax, retirement planning, risk assessment, inheritance, etc. and come up with strategic financial plans to prepare you not only for retirement age but for major events along the way.

Creating a Financial Buffer

A solid financial plan can bring financial peace. A financial advisor plans for the spending needs you have today and the growth you’ll need for spending in the future.

SYM financial advisors go above and beyond the scope of the assets managed. We can collaborate with other professional service providers and proactively work towards your best interests.

Comprehensive Financial Planning

A financial advisor needs to know you well to be able to come up with accurate financial plans and strategies suited for your goals. Generic financial plans just won’t do.

We believe that risk tolerance, lifestyle choices, giving and retirement goals are essential priorities to discuss to develop an advisor-client relationship that works. Our financial advisors take the time to know you uncommonly well so that we can come up with a tailor-made investment plan specifically applicable to you.

SYM financial advisors take the extra mile to get to know clients well – you will feel the difference. Since its founding in 1968, SYM’s business model and people-centered culture has provided clients with goal-based, realistic, and comprehensive financial planning services.

 

Short-term and Long term Goals

We help you impact your financial goals not just by looking ahead, but also by looking around the corners. Life is unpredictable and has a way of throwing us surprises. Short-term goals may become long-term goals and vice versa. When things change, we work alongside you to help you adjust your financial goals accordingly. Our team of financial advisors and planners in Indianapolis will be happy to walk you through the basics of planning for a stable financial journey.

Service – Not Sales

SYM is a commission-free, independent Registered Investment Advisor (RIA). Unlike brokers or banks who are compensated by the sale of investment products, we prioritize high-quality, personalized service from our financial advisors. Our only motivation is to do and offer what’s best for your financial plan.

What are Registered Investment Advisors?

Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) have clear fee structures.  SYM charges fees on a percentage of assets or a flat fee.

RIAs commit to a fiduciary standard that requires them to act in the client’s best interest. They must disclose to you if they take commissions as it can conflict with that fiduciary oath.  SYM does not take commissions.

Keeping Up With Market Trends

The investment market can be unpredictable. SYM Financial acknowledges the fact that when it comes to investments and wealth management, even the most well-laid plan may need adjustments over time.

We work to protect your finances and investments by striving to anticipate unplanned market events and developments. Financial advisors are responsible for ongoing and regular analysis of your financial plan to ensure that directives stay on track.

Who We Serve

SYM financial advisors work with people from all walks of life. It is our goal to make each client aware of where they stand financially now to prepare them for a stable and successful future.
