About

The Retirement Planning Company of New England provides investment advisory and financial planning services primarily to individual clients, including high‑net‑worth households, as well as trusts, pension plans and other institutional clients. It offers discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, retirement account rollover advice, and financial planning on fixed or hourly fee bases, and may advise on a broad set of investments including equities, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, variable annuities, REITs, options and structured products.

The firm tailors advice to each client’s objectives and risk tolerance and employs a mix of fundamental, technical, charting and cyclical analysis in implementing portfolios, typically under discretionary authority when granted. It discloses a fiduciary standard for retirement advice under the Department of Labor guidance and notes that tax efficiency is not a primary consideration unless specifically agreed in writing.

What is noteworthy in the brochure is that certain representatives are also registered representatives of ISC Group and licensed insurance agents, and the firm discloses that those representatives may receive commission‑based compensation (including 12b‑1 fees) for direct brokerage or insurance sales and that the firm uses outside bond dealers that can produce additional compensation to representatives. The firm is affiliated with Mystic Asset Management and describes dual‑registration and referral arrangements; these relationships and the resulting conflicts are disclosed and addressed through written disclosure, a Code of Ethics, and periodic account reviews and oversight.
