Afzali Investments, LLC

Afzali Investments provides discretionary investment supervisory and portfolio management services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients and select entities such as trusts, estates and charitable organizations. The firm manages separately managed accounts and advises on a mix of securities including equities, ETFs, mutual funds, derivatives and cash equivalents, with assets custodied at qualified third‑party custodians.

The firm’s investment process is client‑specific and oriented toward long‑term growth, drawing on fundamental, economic and technical analysis to build customized portfolios and monitoring accounts on a regular basis. Afzali accepts discretionary authority to implement strategies and, in some accounts, employs borrowing (margin) and derivative instruments as part of its portfolio management—practices it discloses as part of its risk management framework.

What distinguishes Afzali from many independent peers is its willingness to use margin and derivatives inside separately managed accounts and to negotiate performance‑based fee arrangements with qualified clients, features that are statistically uncommon for firms in this category. The firm is relatively small and boutique in scale, uses third‑party custody and platform services, and maintains written policies on personal trading, trade errors and conflicts of interest to address potential client conflicts.
