Priscilla Brehm, Morton
Capital Management
MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
Priscilla Brehm is E.V.P. and C.C.O. for Morton Capital
Management (MCM), a fee-only investment advisory firm founded
in 1983. Of her successful 35-year career as a financial
planner and investment advisor (20 with MCM), Priscilla
says, “There’s no one more surprised than I
am. When I was growing up on that Iowa farm, I never dreamed
I would wind up in financial services. On the farm, I learned
that nature goes in cycles. You can’t hurry spring
when it’s the dead of winter. The same is true for
investing. We can’t change the investment cycle, but
we can find growth opportunities in every season. At MCM,
we do that by including alternative investments in our disciplined
asset allocation strategy to help smooth volatility. Another
lesson from the farm is that sometimes it is better to be
a chicken than a hog. Hogs grow fast but once they’ve
reached the target it’s off to market. On the other
hand, egg-laying hens produce income over long periods of
time. The investment lesson here is that each asset is different
but each has a role. Some we buy for growth and others for
income. For a well-balanced portfolio, you need both. The
key is to find the right balance that matches each client’s
specific goals and needs.”
Priscilla is married and has two children. She earned a
black belt in Mixed Martial Arts and is active in her church’s
music and financial ministries. Her interests include family
time, reading, volunteer work, martial arts, music and travel.
