We're here for you
One of the lessons we’ve learned from 62 years of helping clients plan for and pursue financial security is that, at times like these, it’s important for us to be at our best. Because it’s at times like these that clients need a knowledgeable financial coach and an understanding ally the most.
As we have all learned in recent weeks, there are some unique challenges associated with a global pandemic. Like the need for social distancing and, in some cases, the quick and unexpected loss of income. But we are prepared to help you overcome those challenges. Our Advisors are equipped with the latest video conferencing technology to ensure that we can stay in touch, and we have quickly rolled out a financial relief package to ensure that you have ready access to the funds you may need to weather this storm.
Though a global pandemic on this scale is a new experience for all of us, crises that present financial challenges are not. We supported and provided guidance to our clients through the government shutdowns in 2013 and 2018-2019, during the global financial crisis of 2007-2008, in the aftermath of 9/11, when the dot-com bubble burst in 2000 and in the wake of the 1987 market collapse. Just as we did on those occasions, we will get through the current crisis by working together to address any short-term challenges so that you can stay on track with your long-term plan.
Our Advisors are actively reaching out to clients to offer their help. Even if you have not yet connected with your Advisor, though, I encourage you to meet with him or her – virtually or otherwise – if you have questions, need help with a transaction or would like to review your plan or assess your portfolio. It’s important that you feel confident, informed and well positioned to deal with your current circumstances, as well as the volatility in the financial markets that is likely to continue in the weeks and months immediately ahead.
Finally, if you know someone else who is experiencing financial anxiety and could use our help during these challenging times, we are ready and willing to assist. So please don’t hesitate to share that information with your Advisor.
We appreciate the trust and confidence you have placed in First Command, and we are committed to being at our best for you at this important time.
Respectfully,
Mark Steffe, President/CEO
