Questionnaires

Financial DNA

Merit has partnered with Financial DNA® to provide you with an in-depth perspective of your personal financial behaviors, communication styles, and tolerances. You'll begin this process by taking a short, web-based questionnaire. Once completed, you'll have a consultation with your advisor to discuss the results.

Financial House

Brought to you by our Private Wealth Division, this is a comprehensive plan to help manage your finances and build wealth. “Your Financial House” will demonstrate how much lifestyle, hybrid, and non-lifestyle income you need. Calculate your expenses on an annual basis for each category and total them at the end of each section.
