Preservation Wealth Management

The firm is a solo, state-registered investment adviser that primarily serves individual clients through discretionary asset management and financial planning services. It manages roughly $2.37 million across a small client base (about 16 accounts) and typically requires a $50,000 account minimum, while also facilitating access to third‑party managers and model portfolios.

The firm’s investment process uses a mix of analytical approaches — including fundamental, technical, charting and cyclical analysis — and implements both long‑term and shorter‑term strategies as appropriate to client objectives. Portfolios are generally managed on a discretionary basis, the firm may hire sub‑advisors or recommend third‑party managers (including a Morningstar program), and client accounts are reviewed at least quarterly with ongoing monitoring and the option for client‑imposed restrictions.

Distinctive features disclosed in the firm’s ADV include that the principal operates an affiliated insurance business (devoting approximately 90% of his time to that activity) and sells insurance products for commission, a potential conflict of interest addressed through disclosures and fiduciary procedures. The firm also discloses a prior regulatory matter — a 2015 state insurance consent order and a $5,000 fine related to product suitability and related record/notification issues — a disclosure event that is uncommon among peers.
