Background

About Mark Hampton

In 2014, I joined my father, Tim Hampton, and formed The Hampton Group. Together, we deliver "holistic and realistic" wealth management strategies for non-profit organizations and multiple generations of families that have worked with my father for decades. At The Hampton Group, we take a goals-based approach to serving "people and purposes" in St. Louis and 23 states. Rather than focus on meeting industry indices or benchmarks, our sole mission is to meet clients' financial objectives. What do I believe? That the best way to help people look forward, is to first look backward. What are their most meaningful achievements? Have they enjoyed positive investments experiences? And how can I help them identify what wealth can mean to them? I view the discussions I have with clients as time well spent. By exploring their financial comfort levels, concerns and goals, we can define a wealth management strategy that feels right to them. In serving investment committees and boards, we help foundations and other non-profit organizations stay in compliance, as well as help: • Determine their risk tolerance • Provide access to investment policy statement services • Direct the administration of gifts and other funds • Address the details of charitable gift annuities • Advise and arrange loans for capital projects • Help create rainy day funds For families and institutions, we marry technical and fundamental analyses. Using internal and external research and perspectives, we build our own models and recommendations – aligning each client's portfolio with a number of considerations. What makes me proud? Helping individuals and organizations that benefit society. Clients deserve to have a disciplined and dynamic wealth management strategy in place – one that favors fact-based decisions over emotional ones. It's personally rewarding for me to provide unbiased advice and guidance.
