Aequitas Equitas Wealth Management LLC

The firm is a state-registered investment adviser that serves individuals, families, businesses and retirement plans, offering ongoing discretionary portfolio management, project-oriented financial planning, and retirement-plan advisory or management services. As disclosed in its brochure, the firm manages its assets on a discretionary basis and operates with a single advisory professional supporting a modest client base and roughly $11.7 million in AUM as of year-end 2025.

The firm’s investment approach is grounded in modern portfolio theory and seeks global diversification, using fundamental security analysis along with market trend and economic-cycle analysis to construct portfolios. While it primarily implements strategies with mutual funds, ETFs and individual securities, the firm may also use leveraged investments, margin and options as part of portfolio construction, with the client’s documented risk tolerance considered before employing these tools.

Noteworthy distinctions include that the firm’s owner is insurance-licensed and may recommend insurance products that generate commissions, which the brochure identifies as a potential conflict of interest, and the firm receives institutional custodial support services that can benefit both clients and the adviser. The brochure also discloses that a 2022 regulatory audit led to a 2023 consent order and a $7,500 administrative assessment relating to written policies for certain specialized investments; no other material disciplinary events are reported.
