Who We Are
NextChapter is an interdisciplinary consulting practice with deep longevity planning, risk mitigation and wealth management expertise.We leverage a unique combination of professional and personal experience to help customers drive retention, consolidation and organic growth by effectively engaging clients in the Moments that Matter.
Moments that Matter – things like a health event, becoming a caregiver, or losing a loved one – are Moments that Matter to families and their finances. They force us to come together, make trade-offs and manage change. Firms and manufacturers that lean into this reality enable better client retention, consolidation and growth through clients’ NextGen family by helping people navigate change without losing sight of what’s most important – preserving dignity, agency and financial security to and through retirement.
