4 areas where we can help community banks:

Trusts can help reduce estate taxes, but also protect, preserve, and grow wealth for many generations. Argent provides administrative and investment management services as a fiduciary to ensure assets are managed appropriately.
- Investment management: Argent provides a broad range of investment management services designed to optimize performance based on the client’s unique needs and circumstances. Our team concentrates on finding solutions that work, producing consistent results, controlling risk, and providing exceptional value for cost.
