Aegis Capital Group

Aegis Capital Group provides discretionary portfolio management and standalone financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth individuals, and corporate clients. The firm reports about $8.97 million in discretionary assets under management across six client accounts and operates with a single advisory professional; it states no account minimum for its services.

The firm documents client objectives in an Investment Policy Statement and tailors model allocations and written recommendations to client‑imposed restrictions and goals, seeking discretionary authority to execute trades on behalf of clients. Its stated methods combine charting, cyclical, fundamental, quantitative and technical analysis, and it employs a wide set of strategies — including long‑ and short‑term trading, short sales, options (including uncovered positions), ETFs, REITs, commodities and TIPS — while financial planning services are generally delivered as a one‑time plan unless additional work is agreed.

Compared with many supported firms, Aegis is notable for its very small client base and modest AUM while offering higher‑risk strategies (short sales and uncovered options) and handling all advisory functions internally without selecting third‑party managers. The firm requires custody at Schwab Institutional and discloses receipt of research and other services from that custodian, a soft‑dollar dynamic that may influence the choice of broker‑dealer relative to peers that allow client‑directed custodians.
