About True Wealth
True Wealth has been providing wealth management services since 2007 and tax services since 2011. A 2022 and 2023 Case Western Reserve University Weatherhead 100 winner as one of northeast Ohio’s fastest-growing companies. Growth has resulted from delivering on promises to clients by providing high-quality and integrated financial, tax, and investment advice coupled with exceptional service. (See our client satisfaction scores.)
When asked about the benefits businesses will see from the merger, Founder and Managing Partner of True Wealth, Kevin Kroskey, shared:
Over the years, I found that larger CPA firms were often overcharging and underserving successful but “small” business owners, being assigned a junior-level person and junior-level advice, if any. And there are many smaller CPA firms that always seem to be playing catch-up, lacking the resources and reinvestment needed to provide high-quality, proactive advice and great service.
As True Wealth grew over the years and our own financial and tax complexity significantly increased, I became acutely aware of the lack of coordination and missing proactive advice from my professional accounting and tax service providers. Luckily, I had the aptitude and determination to navigate these complexities. There’s clearly a better way.
True Wealth’s Accounting and Tax services will be aimed at meeting the needs of these successful, underserved businesses. Yes, we will provide high-quality tax services. However, we will aim higher to be our client’s financial easy button for accounting and advisory services as well. Plus, with our wealth management expertise, we can more thoughtfully integrate personal and business financial matters together for business owners, allowing them to gain greater clarity and confidence over the entirety of their financial life planning.
We’d like to officially welcome RKKM clients to our True Wealth family. We are excited about the possibilities this merger presents and are confident that the new horizons it will open up will be mutually beneficial.
