Our Mission: Protecting Your Independence
What does financial independence mean to you? Is it the freedom to help family and friends? To give generously to a charity or start a new business? At Vanclef Financial Group, we believe that it means facing life’s most challenging moments with complete financial confidence. Whether you are an advisor, an investor or both, Vanclef Financial Group is committed to protecting your independence by upholding the highest standards of integrity and ethics. We also believe that financial independence and confidence means that you have the ability to choose from products and services untainted by conflicts of interest often associated with big Wall Street firms.

Advisory Services
Chicago Capital Management Advisors is a Registered Investment Adviser that provides clients the option of fee-based account management with institutional money managers. This type of account can provide maximum liquidity to the investor with exposure to tactically selected stocks and bonds. Chicago Capital Management Advisors has searched through hundreds of money managers to come up with a select group that meet stringent criteria.
Marketing
One of the keys to a successful financial practice can be found in the message each advisor gives to his or her clientele and the public at large. At Vanclef Financial Group, the founding philosophy of “many legs on the financial table,” indicating a truly non-correlated, diversified mix of cash-flow producing and highly liquid investment accounts, provides the basis for a common theme.
