CapSouth Wealth Management provides investment management (both discretionary and non‑discretionary), financial planning, institutional consulting and other advisory services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and corporations. The firm reports about 13 investment advisor representatives serving roughly 330 clients and manages approximately $1.0 billion in client assets across individual accounts and employer‑sponsored plans.

The firm builds recommendations around a client’s financial background, investment experience, objectives and risk tolerance and generally seeks diversified, long‑term portfolios consistent with modern portfolio theory, using mutual funds, ETFs, equities, options and occasional private placements. CapSouth also uses sub‑managers for selected mandates and serves in fiduciary roles for retirement plans, including acting as an ERISA 3(38) investment manager for pooled employer plans and providing ongoing oversight of defined contribution plans (over $520 million reported in such plans).

Noteworthy disclosures in the brochure include that some CapSouth employees are licensed insurance agents who may receive commissions on insurance or annuity sales (with a signed disclosure form required), and that BlackRock provides material research and model support for certain CapSouth strategies—support that the firm acknowledges can influence the use of iShares ETFs and BlackRock mutual funds and that it discloses as a potential conflict while offering clients alternatives. The brochure also highlights the firm’s multi‑tiered planning services (Guidance, Wealth Management, Private Wealth), use of the RightCapital platform for planning, and its role in providing institutional plan services including PEP arrangements.
