Bruce W. Robertson, Certified Financial Fiduciary®
Bruce Robertson is comprehensive financial planner who has had the privilege of helping meet the diverse financial needs of his clients’ lives for more than 25 years. As a Certified Financial Fiduciary, Bruce and his team separate themselves by placing a keen focus on developing an enduring relationship with each of his clients throughout the financial planning process. He understands the importance of fully grasping the unique financial goals of a client to demonstrate the trust that is placed with him. His typical client allows him to offer input into their financial picture only after a careful review of their current goals has been conducted. He works diligently to instill a sense of confidence that his clients have taken the appropriate steps to plan for their financial future and the legacy they desire to leave behind.
Bruce offers fee-based comprehensive financial planning that addresses the areas of wealth management, retirement planning, risk management and estate planning for individuals and the complex needs of business owners. This often involves not only the strength and support of his own team of specialists, but also the partnership with his clients’ attorneys, CPAs and other advisors to create a plan that achieves the maximum positive financial impact on each client’s wealth objectives. Bruce has worked with the diverse needs and many times conflicting perspectives of employees and management, as well as the interactions of various levels of internal and external corporate relationships, to provide exceptional financial planning services and inspire excellence in his client’s lives. When he is not spending his personal time with his family, Bruce enjoys performing on the alto or soprano saxophone, serving at his local church or jogging on any of the myriad of trails in and around Houston.

"My passion has always been finding ways to help people. Because of the complexities of our financial system, the best way I have found to channel this passion is listening to the needs and goals of each client, taking the time to educate while making every effort to provide best practice solutions as warranted. This is in line with my Certified Financial Fiduciary® designation by always placing my clients interests before my own. It also is what led me to The Porter Group, because this financial fiduciary approach aligns perfectly with Cayla Dee Porter and her team. My focus with younger clients is on safe wealth accumulation plans as well as wealth protection and long-term care strategies for older clients near, or during, retirement."
Kevin graduated with Honors from The University of Texas with two degrees and is an avid photographer. He enjoys traveling with his amazing wife, Suzanne, and spending time with his kids and grandkids.
