Meet Timothy Baker
Timothy Baker, CFP® is the founder and CEO of WealthShape, an independent wealth management firm dedicated to fiduciary advice and evidence based investment management.
He spent over a decade developing a new client investment experience to specifically address the major problems facing today's financial services industry.
Financial planning should be modern and more accessible.
Portfolio management should be based on empirical evidence.
Services should be responsibly delivered as a fiduciary.
Throughout his career he’s held positions as an advisor, consultant, portfolio manager, and vice president for institutional money management firms with billions of dollars in assets under management. These experiences led to a new way of thinking about personal finance based on a combination of three critical elements: digital age financial planning, low cost factor-based investment management and fiduciary advice delivered by CFP® professionals.
WealthShape works with clients in Connecticut and throughout the country to deliver evidence based investment solutions and high quality advice at a low cost. Clients receive access to all investments, goals and progress in one easy to understand, secure location. The company operates under the belief that financial planning shouldn’t be static but rather vibrant and ongoing all while upholding the highest level of fiduciary responsibility.
