Orion Capital

Orion Capital provides customized investment management services to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), corporations, and other business entities, managing roughly $7.5 million across about 24 client accounts. Services cover ongoing portfolio management and related recommendations across public asset classes such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs and REITs.

The firm bases portfolios on documented client profiles and model allocations (conservative through aggressive), using primarily fundamental analysis for individual equities and occasional technical analysis to identify market trends. Accounts are generally managed on a discretionary basis and the firm may adjust allocations or move to cash as a hedging measure; it charges asset-based fees and, for eligible clients, performance-based fees, and describes internal policies intended to mitigate resulting conflicts of interest.

What distinguishes Orion Capital from many independent peers is its use of performance-based fee arrangements—an uncommon practice among similarly structured firms—and the explicit limits on those arrangements to clients meeting “qualified client” standards. The brochure also highlights formal client documentation (client profile/IPS), written agreements for restrictions, a Code of Ethics, and personal-trading pre-approval and reporting procedures intended to manage potential conflicts and ensure consistent treatment of clients.
