Omnia Family Wealth’s Michael Wagner Featured on CNBC
Michael Wagner, co-founder and COO of Omnia Family Wealth, recently joined CNBC to discuss what lower interest rates could mean for investors and families.
As the Federal Reserve prepares for rate cuts, Michael noted that while markets may welcome the move, investors need to be positioned appropriately. “It’s really important to own financial assets,” he explained. “If you have all of your money sitting in a savings account, over time you’re likely to find yourself being stretched more and more thinly.”
He also emphasized how falling rates influence broader market behavior. “When the Fed’s overnight rate comes down, we earn less on cash, which makes it natural to think about where to reallocate that capital.”
From equities to private markets, Michael’s perspective highlighted how access, diversification, and strategic allocation decisions shape long-term wealth outcomes.

Risk Disclosure
No investment strategy or risk management technique can guarantee returns or eliminate risk in any market environment. All investments include a risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. The principal risks of Omnia Family Wealth strategies are disclosed in the publicly available Form ADV Part 2A.
Asset Allocation may be used in an effort to manage risk and enhance returns. It does not, however, guarantee a profit or protect against loss. Generally, among asset classes, stocks are more volatile than bonds or short-term instruments. Government bonds and corporate bonds have more moderate short-term price fluctuations than stocks, but provide lower potential long-term returns. U.S. Treasury Bills maintain a stable value if held to maturity, but returns are generally only slightly above the inflation rate.
Risk associated with equity investing include stock values which may fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. There are risks associated with investing in Real Assets and the Real Assets sector, including real estate, precious metals and natural resources. Investments can be significantly affected by events relating to these industries.
