Introducing your Financial Stewards

Who We Are

Meet Our Chief Steward

I am James Vigne and I have a passion for Stewardship, my job, and my clients.

In my view, a practical aspect of Stewardship is service. Serving others more than you serve yourself.

With nearly 15 years in the financial planning industry, I help clients transition from wealth accumulation to wealth stewardship. My work extends beyond traditional financial advice and to wealth management, including coordinating the key elements of a family’s financial life, such as retirement planning, investment oversight, tax efficiency, estate planning and succession considerations.

I am particularly passionate about helping business owners and professionals nearing retirement turn decades of hard work into sustainable financial independence and a meaningful legacy for future generations.

I approach every client relationship as a Steward; Trust, integrity, discretion, and service remain central. For clients who want their wealth decisions aligned with their values, I welcome conversations around faith, stewardship, and money.

Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad"
