About the Liquidity / Longevity / Legacy Framework

The Goals-Based Allocation framework segments your total wealth into three purpose-driven buckets, each with its own time horizon, risk tolerance, and investment strategy. This approach, inspired by the UBS Wealth Way methodology, helps align your investments with the outcomes that matter most to you.

Liquidity

Covers 2-5 years of living expenses and near-term goals. Prioritizes capital preservation and immediate access. Think of it as your financial safety net.

Longevity

Designed to sustain your lifestyle throughout retirement. Balances growth with stability over a 10-25 year horizon. The core of your wealth management strategy.

Legacy

Assets you intend to leave behind or give away. With a 25+ year horizon, this bucket can tolerate maximum volatility in pursuit of long-term growth and impact.
