Philanthropy and giving services are integral parts of wealth management practice and ideal tools for financial advisors to leverage and deepen their relationships with clients. Philanthropy can help advisors learn about their clients’ values, legacy goals, and family values, in addition offer highly personalized tax advantaged investment recommendations. Discussion about giving can help advisors understand what clients want from their advice and inform other aspects of their wealth management plans. Ultimately working towards keeping clients from generation to generation.
GiftingNetwork and GreenHill partner with financial services organizations by offering tailored institutional solutions that recognize the unique needs of each institution and their charitable-giving goals and performance reporting needs. They provide customized packages designed to integrate seamlessly into existing systems and processes, empowering financial professionals with comprehensive charitable gift knowledge through their GiftingNetwork Tools portal. This support includes advice delivery to charitably inclined clients, as well as assistance with administration, reporting, accounting, compliance, and client case consulting.
