Our Values

Our mission is to manage market risk, preserve wealth, grow assets and give our clients peace of mind. It is the ultimate measure of our success. We will strive to understand your investment objectives, and we will work tirelessly to partner with you in achieving those goals with the least amount of risk.

Integrity Above All Else

We believe in being honest, true and living with strong moral principles. Integrity is in everything we do.

Put the Client’s Interests First

The majority of financial advisors are commission based and are not held to a specific standard. When we created Denali we elected to form a Registered Investment Advisory Firm and accept the fiduciary responsibility that requires us to put clients’ interests ahead of our own.

Manage Risk

When establishing goals, we believe that clients should select the option with the least amount of risk necessary to meet their objectives.

You Can’t Predict the Market

The Nobel Prize winning physicist Niels Bohr said, “Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future.” Many in the industry make persuasive forecasts about the market, but we have yet to see anyone do this with any level of precision or consistency.

Focus on the Process

Since we can’t predict or control markets, we focus on a series of disciplined processes from establishing an asset allocation to buying and selling securities. Having defined practices in place helps us manage risk and reduce the powerful emotional influences that can drastically affect an investment portfolio.

Follow Your Own Advice

This seems obvious, but there are quite a few people in the investment business who don’t follow their own advice. We believe that investing our own money in the same securities as our clients keeps us keenly aware of our work.

Integrity. Process. Results.
