About

MAG CAP is a multi-team SEC-registered investment adviser managing roughly $1.69 billion with a team of about 15 advisors, serving individuals (including high-net-worth), employer retirement plans, corporations, estates, and other business entities. The firm provides ongoing portfolio management, financial planning and consulting, qualified-plan consulting under ERISA (including participant education), and business advisory services.

Investment management is offered on both discretionary and non-discretionary bases using strategic and tactical asset-allocation models, equity-focused sleeves, and customized portfolios; the firm monitors accounts and rebalances based on client goals and mean-variance optimization. MAG CAP employs a mix of fundamental, quantitative, technical and sector-rotation analysis and recommends a broad range of instruments—from ETFs and mutual funds to separate accounts, private placements and crypto-related funds—while addressing tax considerations in portfolio construction.

Noteworthy distinctions include the firm’s work for banking and thrift institution clients, a client type that is uncommon among multi-team peers, and ownership interests held by firm principals in regional banking entities that also appear as clients. The firm also discloses links between principals and external crypto fund activities and maintains institutional custody and trading arrangements that provide research and practice-support services—factors that may give rise to additional conflicts of interest for prospective clients to review.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
