Schauer Investment Management, Inc.

Schauer Investment Management provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, and pooled investment vehicles. The firm documents client objectives with investment policy statements and implements portfolios that are equity‑focused for a majority of clients while also utilizing mutual funds, fixed income, real‑estate funds, and non‑U.S. securities as appropriate.

The firm’s investment process is grounded in fundamental analysis and long‑term trading, and it may employ margin and options strategies for suitable accounts; accounts are reviewed at least quarterly and the adviser seeks best execution through recommended custodians. SI manages client assets on an ongoing basis, prepares periodic account reports, and may aggregate trades across client accounts to seek efficiency while disclosing the attendant risks of leverage and derivatives.

What is distinctive about the firm is that it both manages and recommends a private fund to suitable clients and serves pooled investment vehicles, activities it discloses as potential conflicts and addresses through allocation and oversight policies. The firm’s management also provides accounting services through a related practice, and its relatively small client base combined with substantial assets under management results in concentrated client relationships compared with many peers.
