Cocheco Financial Group is an independent financial advisory firm based in Dover, NH. As an independent firm, we have no pressure to use proprietary products or do business with financial institutions that are not in our clients’ best interest. We pride ourselves on our independence, fiduciary standard of care, and ability to exceed client expectations in every aspect of service.
We believe that the missing piece to abundant success for many people is not being accountable to a plan. Many people have done well creating individual pieces of a plan; a 401(k), investments, an IRA, trust, etc. But too many people do not have the cohesive plan that ties it all together. Without a clear plan that holds both you and your advisor accountable, the future is simply left to hope and chance which is not a great strategy for managing your wealth and retirement.
