AXA Advisors

Branch Executive Vice President - Dan Worthington, CFP®, CLU, ChFC


 

At the Northern California/Hawaii Branch of AXA Advisors, we are committed to providing our clients with the appropriate advice, products, and services in the Financial Services industry. We have financial professionals who focus on helping individuals meet a variety of financial needs, including Retirement Planning, Asset Allocation, Estate Planning*, Qualified Plan funding, Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation and Business Continuation.

We find that many clients have created their financial portfolio without a defined strategy. Their portfolio might not be tax efficient, asset allocation might not be consistent with their propensity for risk, and they may have significant overlap of stocks in their portfolio.

We help you plan for your financial future by starting with a strategy. Here, we help you determine and prioritize your goals and objectives, and then we help you to design a portfolio that meets those goals and objectives. Once a financial strategy is constructed, and particular needs are uncovered, we can offer the appropriate financial products and services from a variety of different companies.

This objective, open architecture strategy separates us as the trusted financial professional. Top quality client service is only part of the Northern California/Hawaii bracnhof AXA Advisors. We are committed to giving back to our community by means of involvement at high levels with Chambers of Commerce, Rotary, coaching Little League sports, volunteering at the S.F. Food Bank, working with non-profits, and much more.

By bringing in top quality Financial Professionals, providing advanced training and marketing support, and focusing on the appropriate products and service for our clients, our Branch has doubled in size over the past 5 years.
