My Company
Baystate Investment Advisors, Inc. was established in 1984 as a financial planning firm specializing in comprehensive
financial planning and tax incentive investments. As our clients’ established greater wealth and derived less benefit
from tax avoidance strategies the firm evolved into a fee-based planning company with emphasis on business management
and organizational planning.
Our migration from a product orientation to fee based financial advisory and asset management service allows us to focus
on the best interests of our clients’ while realizing performance incentive compensation for our professional financial
management.
