Advisor profile


Alternative solutions & Risk mitigation strategies

Meet Howard Perlroth, a financial advisor with 24 years of financial industry experience. Also, affectionately known as HP, I am passionate about helping my clients develop a financial plan to help navigate market uncertainty and reduce the risk in their investment portfolios.

I believe that by utilizing alternative strategies and investments with different correlations to the stock and bond markets, there is potential to achieve attractive rates of return taking reasonable levels of risk. This, in turn, I believe can help stabilize retirement income planning and can provide a more secure financial future allowing clients to safely enjoy their retirement with reduced stress.

Interests

Grew up in Rockville, MD and graduated from Rockville High School, where I was part of a State Championship Soccer Team. Go Rams! From there, on to a degree in Economics from Syracuse. I learned many things in school, some of them I use to this day. Perhaps what prepared me most in life, however, was travel. Married for 30 years, my wife Sue and I have 3 beautiful children, 3 dogs, Coal, Jack, Gizmo and 2 cats, Dev and Beanie. Sammi, Alex and Stephanie are wonderful children, and it has been my pleasure to coach Sammi’s soccer team, Alex’s baseball team/running the marching band boosters, and Stephanie’s basketball team. Time for grandkids!!
