About

Grand Central Investment Group provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, and consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), retirement plans, charitable organizations, and businesses. The firm also operates a firm‑sponsored wrap fee program, described in a separate wrap brochure, as an alternative means to deliver its portfolio management services.

The firm uses a top‑down process to set U.S. and global allocations across stocks, bonds, and cash, then emphasizes dividend‑oriented equity exposure identified through quantitative and fundamental screening and supplemented by technical analysis. Portfolios may include a broad mix of instruments — including exchange‑traded products, fixed income, alternative strategies, private placements, structured products, and MLPs — with the firm using these tools to diversify and manage volatility.

Notable disclosures in the ADV include recent material changes to ownership/leadership and the firm’s role as a wrap program sponsor, each of which the firm separately documents for clients. The firm also discloses external solicitation arrangements that allocate a portion of advisory compensation to third‑party promoters and a reliance on a small advisory team to manage a multi‑hundred‑million dollar client base, features that differentiate it from many peers.
