About

Global Wealth Strategies & Associates serves a broad client base that includes individual and high-net-worth investors as well as employer-sponsored retirement plans, trusts, foundations, and other institutions, providing discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, retirement-plan advisory and limited-scope consulting. The firm manages roughly $457 million in client assets and also offers trustee and Personal CFO-type administrative services under separate engagement agreements.

The firm follows a top-down, macro-environmental approach with tactical asset allocation and sector rotation, and implements strategies across growth and fixed-income allocations while tailoring portfolios to client objectives and constraints. GWS&A uses sub-advisers and outside managers for some programs and has added direct indexing through third-party providers (including tax-loss harvesting in taxable accounts), while offering an online planning portal to maintain and update clients’ financial plans.

Compared with many peers, GWS&A discloses an affiliation with accounting-related services—some investment adviser representatives provide tax services through a separate CPA firm and the brochure notes a tax stipend mechanism to pay clients’ CPAs in limited circumstances. The firm is also affiliated with an insurance agency, provides trustee/ILIT administrative services (and complies with surprise-audit requirements for related accounts), and discloses receipt of travel and marketing reimbursements from product sponsors.
