Auburn, AL Office

Lipscomb Investment Group advises individuals (including high-net-worth and non‑HNW clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. The firm offers discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, pension consulting and fee‑based consulting, and also sponsors a wrap fee program while providing access to private investment opportunities for qualified investors.

The firm tailors advice using client suitability information and typically manages accounts on a discretionary basis, employing sub‑advisers and third‑party money managers where appropriate. Portfolio construction draws on a mix of methods (fundamental and technical analysis, modern portfolio theory, and both long‑ and short‑term strategies), and Lipscomb monitors accounts regularly while using an order management system (Pontera) to implement tax‑efficient asset location and opportunistic rebalancing for held‑away retirement and other accounts.

Compared with many peers, Lipscomb is notable for sponsoring a wrap fee program and for its affiliation with an insurance agency whose advisors are licensed to sell insurance products and receive separate commission compensation. The firm has also established Plainsman Private Investments and a separate manager (Plainsman Fund Management) that can generate performance‑based fees and result in custody authority over the pooled vehicle, with customary private‑fund controls (including independent audits); it also pays a portion of advisory revenue to its Pontera platform for held‑away account management.
