Quad-Cities Investment Group, LLC

Quad-Cities Investment Group provides investment advisory services and retirement plan consulting to individuals, trusts, employee benefit plans, charitable organizations, and business entities, serving both retail and high‑net‑worth clients. The firm manages approximately $375.6 million in client assets and offers comprehensive portfolio management, financial planning, and employer plan advisory services.

The firm applies a blend of fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis to construct portfolios of exchange‑traded funds, mutual funds, and individual stocks and bonds, meeting with clients at least once (in person or by phone) to develop tailored strategies and conducting at least semi‑annual reviews. QCIG’s implementation can include options strategies and margin borrowing in separately managed accounts, and the brochure describes specific option practices (e.g., covered calls and spreads while prohibiting uncovered calls) and the attendant risks of margin use.

What is distinctive about the firm is its explicit, documented use of derivatives and borrowing within managed accounts — practices it outlines along with risk controls and that are relatively uncommon among similar team advisors. The firm also provides written investment policy support for retirement plans and operates within a Raymond James custody/prime‑brokerage arrangement that supplies research and execution services.
