What is Hurley Wealth Management Group’s investment philosophy?

We believe that the stock market is mostly efficient, also called the Efficient Market Hypothesis, meaning that the best valuation of a company is the current share price of that company. We believe that while there are portfolio managers who have the skill to pick stocks that excel over time, however, these portfolio managers are extremely rare and are the exception. We also believe the costs of your investments matter, in the importance of being globally diversified and not attempting to “time the market” are what helps investors be compensated for the risk they are taking.

What is the “No Ask Guarantee”?

Our hope is that you have an amazing client experience with our firm. One of the ways our firm is different is that we guarantee that we will not ask you to transfer your assets over when you engage our Express or Essential advice services.

How long after I contact Hurley Wealth will I be able to actually start receiving financial advice?

In some cases, under our Essential Membership advice services, we will be able to give concrete actionable financial advice during or immediately after the initial meeting.
