RAS Capital Services, Inc.

RAS Capital Services, Inc. provides ongoing portfolio management and investment supervisory services to individual and high‑net‑worth clients, preparing an Investment Policy Statement for each client to document goals, income, tax considerations, time horizon and risk tolerance. The firm’s brochure reports $55 million in assets under management across a small number of client accounts and notes it does not participate in wrap fee programs.

The firm’s investment process combines charting, fundamental and technical analysis and employs long‑term, short‑term and trading strategies while stating it may use a variety of securities to diversify client portfolios. RAS explicitly manages client accounts on a non‑discretionary basis—saying it does not accept investment discretion or custody—so trades require client authorization and accounts are reviewed at least quarterly.

What is noteworthy relative to many peers is the firm’s entirely non‑discretionary AUM alongside an active trading approach and a broad allowable investment universe, documented in the brochure’s descriptions of methods and strategies. The brochure also discloses the receipt of research/soft‑dollar benefits from custodians and the firm’s practice of allowing client‑directed brokerage, features that, combined with active technical/trading methods, can support use of more active or complex instruments in client accounts and are less common among independent advisors.
