Bautis Financial, LLC

Bautis Financial, LLC provides discretionary investment supervisory services and financial planning to individual and high‑net‑worth clients, managing roughly 275 client relationships with about $197 million in discretionary assets. Its service set includes ongoing portfolio management supported by a written Investment Policy Statement and financial planning work such as cash flow, retirement, estate, tax, and insurance needs analyses.

The firm’s investment process is driven by client‑specific Investment Policy Statements and uses Orion Risk Intelligence alongside charting, fundamental, technical and cyclical analyses to implement both long‑ and short‑term trading strategies across mutual funds, equities, fixed income, ETFs, hedge funds, REITs and private placements. Bautis Financial generally operates on a discretionary basis, requests authority to select and trade securities for clients, and conducts account monitoring and reviews at least annually.

Noteworthy operational features include its insurance and risk‑management services—reviewing existing policies and analyzing life, long‑term care, disability and health insurance needs—and its role as an insurance broker/agent, a capability less common among similarly supported firms. The firm also requires clients to use its recommended custodian rather than permitting directed brokerage and relies on a single managing‑member reviewer for account oversight, choices that may affect trade execution and oversight relative to many peers.
