About this listen

 What if everything you thought about financial risk was wrong? Discover how redefining risk could help your high net worth clients achieve more—and sleep better at night. In this episode of Sterling Insights, Roger sits down with Clark Richard, Co-Founder and CEO of Vineyard Global Advisors. Together, they explore a client-first approach to risk, portfolio design, and long-term planning, sharing valuable insights and practical tips for listeners. Clark draws from his extensive experience building financial businesses and guiding ultra-affluent families to discuss how to align wealth strategy with real-life goals, offering actionable advice for advisors who serve high net worth clients. This episode is a must-listen for financial advisors managing assets under management (AUM), providing both knowledge and tools to navigate planning, risk, and client expectations with greater confidence. Key Takeaways: 📉 Risk Reimagined: True risk isn't volatility—it’s the probability of not achieving your goals. Clark explains how he reframes risk for clients. 🧮 Planning-First Philosophy: Start with goals, not products. Clark shows how planning leads investment strategy—not the other way around. 💼 Tailored Portfolios: How time-segmented strategies help align liquidity, volatility, and long-term growth in client portfolios. 🏛️ Private Market Insights: When and how private credit, private equity, and interval funds fit into high net worth portfolios. 🧾 Tax and Estate Integration: Why most financial plans fail to connect taxes, estate planning, and portfolio strategy—and how to fix it. Quotes from Clark Richard: "Volatility is just one measure of risk. We define risk as the probability of not meeting your financial objectives." "Structure follows strategy. Without an integrated plan, even good ideas can fail to deliver." "It's not what you make. It’s what you keep." 🔗 Conclusion: This episode challenges traditional thinking and equips advisors with a framework to better serve high net worth clients—by integrating planning, risk management, and wealth strategy into one cohesive approach.
