Bolton Global Asset Management

Bolton Global Asset Management is a registered investment adviser that provides asset management and financial planning to a mix of individual clients (including high‑net‑worth individuals), corporate and institutional clients, and banks, trusts, estates and charitable organizations. It offers portfolio management on discretionary and non‑discretionary bases and typically charges percentage‑of‑AUM advisory fees.

BGAM delivers customized wealth management through a network of independent investment adviser representatives, employing internal management, unaffiliated money managers, and third‑party asset management (TPAM) programs and model portfolios. Portfolios are built primarily with mutual funds, ETFs, individual equities and fixed‑income securities; the firm generally emphasizes a long‑term approach while permitting shorter‑term trades, option strategies, and wrap‑fee structures.

The firm’s structure and service model include several features that distinguish it from many peers: it is affiliated with an introducing broker‑dealer (Bolton Global Capital) and generally directs clients to that broker‑dealer with clearing through Pershing LLC, it receives and discloses 12b‑1 and revenue‑sharing arrangements, and it maintains an NFA introducing broker registration (though it currently does not engage in futures trading). BGAM also works with offshore clients and offshore funds, offers bank‑sweep and money‑fund sweep options that involve participating banks, and discloses commission, administrative fixed‑income charges and broker‑dealer markups that represent potential conflicts of interest for clients to consider.
