Cooper Eagle, LLC

The firm provides wealth management, discretionary and non-discretionary investment management, financial planning, and retirement-plan advisory services to individuals, high-net-worth clients, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and retirement plans. As with many supported advisors, it charges percentage-of-AUM advisory fees and delivers portfolio management for individual clients.

Investment programs are generally long-term focused and built around low-cost, diversified mutual funds and ETFs, though the firm will also use individual stocks, bonds and options and may retain legacy positions for tax or suitability reasons. The advisor combines fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis in its research, offers standalone hourly financial planning engagements, and conducts regular portfolio monitoring and periodic rebalancing.

Distinctive features for a two-advisor firm of this size include operating from three offices and providing ERISA retirement-plan services (including 3(21) investment oversight and 3(38) investment management), along with vendor analysis and participant education capabilities. The firm’s principal also provides tax-preparation services as a separate business activity, and the adviser maintains an institutional relationship with a major custodian that provides software and other economic benefits; these arrangements and occasional referral/solicitation relationships with unaffiliated managers are disclosed and governed by the firm’s policies and Code of Ethics to address related conflicts.
