Banker Investment Group

Banker Investment Group provides continuous investment supervisory services and individual portfolio management to individuals (including high net worth clients), charitable organizations, and small businesses, managing approximately $259.6 million in discretionary client assets as of December 31, 2024. The firm gathers client objectives, time horizons, risk tolerance and liquidity needs through a data-gathering process to develop personalized investment policies and oversees accounts with ongoing monitoring and at least quarterly reviews.

The firm combines fundamental and technical methods (including charting and cyclical analysis) and uses a mix of long-term, short-term and trading strategies tailored to each client’s stated objectives and tax considerations. Implementation tools described in the brochure include options strategies (covered calls and spreads), short sales, and margin transactions, which the adviser uses when appropriate and consistent with client suitability.

What is noteworthy relative to many peers is the firm’s explicit use of borrowing and margin in separately managed accounts and its engagement in short selling and option writing as part of portfolio implementation—practices that are relatively uncommon among supported firms. Operationally, the firm generally manages accounts on a discretionary basis, recommends institutional custody and execution relationships, and does not vote proxies on behalf of clients, leaving proxy voting to the account holders.
