Specialty Asset Management

Overview

With unique attributes that distinguish them from other asset classes, nonfinancial assets may offer you valuable financial benefits while often providing personal benefits as well. The Specialty Asset Management team¹ has extensive experience managing timber, farm and ranch land, oil, gas and mineral interests², real estate and private businesses, and can work with your Bank of America Private Bank team to integrate them into your overall plan and portfolio.
