Asset Management Strategies, Inc. provides personalized financial planning and discretionary investment management to a mix of individuals, retirement plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities, managing approximately $220,241,744 across about 2,110 client accounts. The firm offers services that include cash flow and tax planning, insurance review, education and retirement planning, and implementation of investment recommendations; it also facilitates trades under a limited power of attorney while clients retain custody with qualified custodians.

The firm’s investment process centers on asset allocation with a trend-following approach, using passively managed index funds and exchange-traded funds for market exposure and open-ended mutual funds for fixed income, and it documents client goals in a relationship-management system. Accounts are typically managed on a discretionary basis with quarterly reviews (and more frequently as needed), and the firm notes availability of additional strategies such as options, margin, and IPO participation when appropriate.

Distinctive aspects include the firm’s documented arrangements and client mix that extend beyond typical retail households to include banks and thrift institutions, investment companies, and other institutional or professional clients, as reflected in its client-type disclosures and related-person affiliations. Several advisory team members engage in life insurance product sales and the firm may use non-securities annuities or insurance on a fee or commission basis, and the overall client base size relative to the eight-advisor team yields an unusually high client count per advisor.
