YOU Driven Results
Boulder Investment Group was established in 2008 and designed to be an independent investment advisory practice. Being “independent” means that the investment advice you receive comes with no strings attached or hidden agendas through obligations to a parent organization. At Boulder, we have access to an enormous selection of investments and the freedom to customize an investment portfolio that is designed to meet your needs. Because we’re independent, we have no requirement to use proprietary products. Our focus is squarely on you and the best investments available to achieve the results you desire.
