Specialized Investment Advising for Retirees

Managing your investments during retirement is crucial for maintaining financial stability. In Sun City West, AZ, Paul Axberg helps retirees design investment plans that focus on:

A well-structured investment strategy focuses on generating reliable income throughout retirement. This may involve a mix of dividend-paying stocks, bonds, annuities, and systematic withdrawals from retirement accounts. By diversifying income sources and adjusting allocations based on market conditions, we help retirees pursue a sustainable income stream while managing risks effectively.

Strategic withdrawal planning can reduce your tax burden, and help you preserve more of your hard-earned savings. We analyze factors such as Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs), Roth conversions, and the sequence of withdrawals to optimize tax efficiency. By withdrawing funds in a tax-efficient manner, you’ll be able to pursue longevity of retirement assets.

A knowledgeable CPA with expertise in retirement tax planning can help retirees develop efficient withdrawal strategies, so that funds are accessed in a tax-efficient way that allows you to pursue long-term financial stability and minimized tax impact.

Institutional-Grade Investment Management

Paul builds client portfolios using a curated group of institutional money managers, each offering a distinct, professionally managed model designed around a specific investment approach. Rather than relying on a single strategy, Paul can draw from multiple managers and management styles within the same account, selecting the model best suited to each client’s goals and risk tolerance.

Paul also uses State Street’s institutional analytical research to build his own branded model portfolios, applying that research directly to how client accounts are allocated and managed. For clients who prefer an individualized approach rather than a model, Paul has access to an open-architecture platform through a separate clearing relationship, allowing for direct, individual stock selection tailored to their specific goals.

That range of approaches, combined with Paul’s CIMA® designation — earned at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and issued by the Investments & Wealth Institute — means each client’s portfolio is built with institutional-level expertise and matched specifically to how they want to invest.

What CFP® + CPA + CIMA® Means for You

Most financial advisors hold one of these. A small number hold two. Paul holds all three — and uses them together in every client relationship.

CFP®

Certified Financial Planner™. The planning standard for retirement income, insurance, and legacy strategy. This is the foundation of how Paul builds and stress-tests every client's long-term plan.

CPA

Certified Public Accountant, with deep specialization in retirement tax planning. The same person who manages your portfolio understands exactly what it will cost you at tax time — and adjusts your strategy accordingly, year-round.

CIMA®

Certified Investment Management Analyst®, earned through the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. This designation gives Paul the knowledge to provide advanced investment consulting, portfolio construction, and wealth management, particularly for affluent and institutional clients. It is not a qualification to manage assets on a specific platform.

Together, these aren’t three credentials on a business card. They’re the architecture of an integrated practice.

Your Portfolio Decisions and Your Tax Decisions All At The Same Time

Paul Axberg, CFP® CPA CIMA®. One person making the investment call and reading the tax consequence.

Most retirees have an advisor managing the portfolio and a CPA filing the return. The advisor rebalances in November. The CPA finds out in March. By then the gain is realized and the only thing left is to report it.

Paul is both. The person deciding what to sell already knows what selling it does to your return. Rebalancing, asset location, Roth conversions, withdrawal sequencing: each one is an investment decision and a tax decision at the same time, and each gets made that way.

That doesn’t remove market risk or promise a result. It may keep avoidable tax consequences from quietly reducing what you keep.
