Apex, NC Office

Mason & Associates serves individual and high-net-worth clients, as well as trusts, and provides ongoing investment management and financial planning alongside occasional standalone services. In addition to portfolio management, the firm offers divorce planning, coordinates tax return preparation through an independent third-party tax consultant, and conducts educational seminars specific to federal employee retirement benefits.

The firm typically implements strategic asset allocation through diversified, risk-based model portfolios and relies on both discretionary and non-discretionary relationships to match client preferences. For many accounts Mason & Associates selects an independent sub‑adviser to construct and administer model portfolios and handle back-office functions, while the firm tailors recommendations to each client’s financial condition, goals, and risk tolerance.

Compared with many team-sized advisers, Mason & Associates emphasizes client education and ancillary services—highlighting periodic seminars and standalone divorce-planning work—and documents its use of external resources and vendors in client delivery. The brochure also discloses notable third‑party relationships: a primary Independent Adviser that provides model management and event support, and custodial partners that furnish platform services and client-event sponsorships, all of which the firm identifies and evaluates as part of its oversight processes.
