After more than a decade of exceptional work, Jaclyn Gilbert has been promoted from Chief Operating Officer and Chief Compliance Officer to President of Saxon Financial Group and we couldn’t be more proud to share this news with you.

Jaclyn joined SFG in 2013 and has been a cornerstone of everything we’ve built since. The systems we rely on, the relationships we’ve deepened, and the culture that sets our firm apart Jaclyn has had a hand in all of it.

This promotion isn’t a surprise to anyone who has worked alongside her or been served by her. Through every challenge and every opportunity, she has shown up with integrity, perseverance, and a genuine commitment to doing right by our clients.

This promotion is well deserved, and frankly, it’s a natural step in a journey that has been unfolding for a long time.

As Richard shared with our clients directly:

“Jaclyn will continue to lead this firm with the heart and soul of a warrior—fierce in protecting our clients’ interests—but with the humility to serve in ways that set Saxon Financial Group apart. I could not be more confident in her leadership or more proud of the team we have built together.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership. I’m as excited about our future as I have ever been, and I look forward to continuing this journey with each of you for many years ahead.”

For those wondering what this means for the firm Richard is not retiring. He remains fully engaged as CEO, focused on investment strategy, mentorship, and the client relationships he’s built over the years.

This is a moment of growth, not transition.

In Jaclyn’s own words:

“It is with incredible pride and excitement that I write to you today as the new President of Saxon Financial Group.

Since beginning my career at SFG in 2013, I have had the privilege to serve in many roles, most recently as Chief Compliance and Operations Officer. Each chapter of this journey has deepened my gratitude for the trust you place in us and strengthened my commitment to our shared vision for the future.

Throughout the years, I have benefited greatly from Richard’s mentorship. His guidance has shaped my approach and inspired me to lead with care during this transition. Richard has shown me what it truly means to be an honorable steward of life and legacy: it is about patience, perseverance, and the resolve to stay the course.

While my title is changing, my dedication to you remains steadfast. My primary goal is to ensure you continue to receive the high level of care that originally brought you to Saxon. Our team has worked with heart and dedication to provide the best service possible, and we will continue to focus our efforts on improving your lives for the better.

That says it better than we ever could.

Why the First Five Years of Retirement Matter More Than the Last Twenty

Early retirement decisions have an outsized impact on long-term financial success, especially for Oil & Gas professionals. The first few years set spending patterns, tax strategies, and investment outcomes that shape future stability. Thoughtful planning around income, withdrawals, and market risk can help create a smoother, more confident transition into lasting retirement.

Business Insurance Planning: Building Financial Security for Your Company

Business insurance planning helps identify key risks, match them with appropriate coverage, and connect that protection to long‑term business and personal financial goals. By regularly reviewing policies and addressing operational, liability, cyber, and people‑related exposures, owners keep their businesses better prepared for unexpected events.

How Withdrawal Strategies Can Help Reduce Taxes in Retirement

Most people focus on saving for retirement but overlook how withdrawals impact taxes. Each account—tax-free, tax-deferred, and taxable—is treated differently, and coordinating them strategically can minimize taxes and smooth income over time. Smart withdrawal planning isn’t about avoiding taxes but managing when and how you pay them for better long-term control.

Paint-by-Numbers: Q4 Market Commentary

A historic U.S. government shutdown created major gaps in official economic data, forcing investors to lean on private indicators and earnings reports to judge the economy. The result was an uneasy mix of solid headline growth and very weak consumer sentiment, with clear signs that higher- and lower-income households are experiencing very different conditions. Markets stayed volatile as Federal Reserve officials split over rate cuts and as heavy, debt-fueled investment in artificial intelligence raised questions about long‑term profitability and financial risk

Year-end Estate Planning Strategies

Year-end is the ideal time to review your estate plan and ensure your wishes, finances, and family priorities are protected. A thoughtful plan provides clarity, control, and peace of mind for the future. Schedule an estate plan review today to start the new year with confidence.

The Part of Estate Planning No One Talks About

Estate planning extends beyond wills and inheritances. It involves preparing for everyday financial decisions, organizing key documents, and ensuring someone can step in when needed—all especially relevant for Oil & Gas professionals managing multiple accounts, benefits, and assets.

Charitable Giving Strategies to Boost Your Financial Plan

Strategic, tax-smart generosity lets you support causes you care about while also strengthening your long-term financial plan. By choosing efficient methods such as bunching donations, using retirement accounts, and giving appreciated investments, you can often reduce taxes, manage portfolio risk, and build a lasting legacy without increasing your out-of-pocket cost.
