Brascia Investment Management, Inc.

The firm provides personalized, fee‑only investment management and financial planning to a small number of clients, including individuals, pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and small businesses. Unusually for independent advisers, the firm does not maintain relationships with non‑high‑net‑worth retail individuals and manages roughly $48 million across about 30 clients.

Portfolios are managed on a discretionary basis with an asset‑allocation approach that emphasizes no‑load or low‑load mutual funds, exchange‑traded funds, equities and fixed income, and trades are executed through recommended discount custodians. The firm charges percentage‑of‑AUM fees billed monthly, does not custody client assets, and typically operates under client‑approved limited trading authorization.

The firm is a solo, independent practice whose principal combines a law degree and CFP credential with prior experience at a national accounting firm and a large brokerage, which may shape its work with trusts and institutional clients. Distinctive operational features include a strict fee‑only policy with no commissions or soft dollars accepted, the adviser’s practice of not voting client proxies (clients retain voting authority), and no enforced account minimums despite a relatively high AUM per client.
