Investment Management Group

Investment Management Group provides advisory and portfolio management services to a mix of institutional and individual clients, including financial institutions (bank clients), one municipal client, individuals, high-net-worth households, trusts, insurance companies, and non-profit entities. Its service offerings include institutional/bank portfolio management, individual portfolio management, financial planning, 401(k) plan advisory, an automated ETF/mutual fund investment program, and asset/liability modeling for bank clients.

For its institutional/bank business the firm typically operates on a non-discretionary basis, requiring signed investment policies, authorizations to trade, and reaching purchase decisions through discussion and mutual agreement with the client while applying a best‑execution analysis. Individual accounts may be managed discretionary or non‑discretionary, and the firm combines fundamental and qualitative analysis, asset allocation, and regular account reviews (weekly for institutional accounts; twice monthly for individual accounts), with an automated Schwab-based platform that supports rebalancing and optional tax‑loss harvesting.

The firm is a wholly owned subsidiary of a bank holding company and maintains formal relationships with an affiliated bank and an affiliated insurance agency, and its board includes attorneys and CPAs, reflecting closer ties to banking, legal, and accounting resources than is typical for many multi‑team firms. It reports substantially more non‑discretionary than discretionary AUM (approximately $3.48 billion non‑discretionary versus $1.75 billion discretionary), offers fee‑based asset/liability modeling to bank clients, and routinely serves client types (banks, insurance companies, and a municipal client) that are less common among peers in its category.
