Temporary Trust Officer

If your organization recently lost your Trust or Wealth Management head, I can fill that void for a period of time until you find a permanent replacement.  I offer experienced leadership, proven results and a simple solution that can meet your needs. This is a cost effective program designed to bridge the gap between permanent managers, ensuring that your trust continues to operate smoothly and efficiently.

 

Independent trustee

I offer my expertise to be an individual or private trustee for your family trusts.  I offer independence, investment expertise, and my proven ability to get along with beneficiaries while executing the terms of the trust document, with utmost regard to preserving the trust for its original intent.

 

Charitable trusts

I have served on many charitable trust boards in the past, as well as having served in many capacities within charities themselves, including chairman, treasurer, and as a member of grant committees.  I offer my 40 years of experience to the process of reviewing bequests as well as carrying out the original focus of the grantors, ensuring that their wishes are honored with all distributions or contributions.

 

Trust management consulting

I have experience managing both trust and brokerage divisions.  Having been both a trust investment officer and a regulator with the Office of Comptroller of the Currency (OOC), I am available to serve as a consultant with the goal of improving the efficiency and product offerings of your department.  My experience provides expertise in fee schedules, sales coaching and policy management.

 

Investment portfolio management

I can assist you with your bank investment portfolio.  As an Executive Vice President and Trust Officer I managed a bank portfolio for over 35 years, thus I have experience managing a portfolio for safety, yield and liquidity.  I also offer my expertise in the area of regulatory reporting, investment policy review, and compliance.  My years of experience running a portfolio will bring stability and direction to your institution.

 

Asset/liability consulting

I offer my bank expertise both managing a portfolio as well as balancing the asset liability side of the equation.  As an asset/liability consultant, I will review your A/L policies and practices, as well as look at your day to day management of cash, and then offer suggestions for improving your overall A/L management, with liquidity being paramount and yield a close second.

 

Regulatory assistance

I worked for the OCC for a number of years and dealt with regulatory compliance in my 40 plus years of banking, this background helps me think like a regulator for both trusts and the investment portfolio.  I will bring this experience to bear for you as a regulatory assistance consultant.

 

Trust sales consulting

The trust business is dependent on new business.  Growth in the industry is essential.  I can assist you in establishing a sales program as well as a monitoring system for management and the board of directors.  Sales start at the top and continue throughout the organization.

 

Trust investment advisory

Investments in trusts are critical for the beneficiaries of the trusts.  I offer my investment and portfolio management expertise to advise trust investments; we will discuss risk tolerance, style and performance, as well as addressing clear customer communication.
