About Sefa Mawuli, CFP®
Hi! I’m Sefa, a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and Investment Adviser Representative who helps people with cross-border ties organize their finances to meet their life goals. I also have extensive experience working with globally-mobile professionals and executives who receive equity compensation (RSUs, RS, ISOs, NQSOs).
My practice approach is hands-on and ongoing. I essentially act as a personal CFO: helping my clients to manage their overall financial life and life events – beyond just investments.
Together, we tackle:
-Cash flow and budgeting
-Saving for goals and major purchases
-Investments
-Tax strategy
-Insurance planning
-Estate planning
-Financial independence and retirement planning
…and the various events that life conjures up.
Typical client questions for me:
How do I manage/plan for cash flow and savings when international travel is central to my family values?
How do I manage cash flow and accounts in different currencies?
How do I plan for retirement when I’m not sure where I’ll retire?
How do I manage my equity when some of it was granted while I worked overseas?
How do I think about real estate (overseas and here in the US)?
How do I minimize taxes when I have tax obligations in different countries?
How do I save for my children’s college when I’m not sure where in the world they will go to college?
How do I support family here and abroad?
If you’re seeking a long-term partnership with a comprehensive financial planner who can guide you through all aspects of your financial life in the US and wherever life may take you, please send me a note and we can figure out if we’re a mutual fit.
