Sagent Wealth Management

Sagent Wealth Management is an SEC‑registered adviser that manages roughly $100.4 million across about 82 client accounts and serves individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), family offices, trusts, corporations and non‑profits. The firm offers comprehensive wealth management services including individualized portfolio management (discretionary and non‑discretionary), model portfolio management (notably the Sagent Total Return series), recommendations of independent third‑party managers, and financial planning (“financial checkups”).

The firm’s process begins with a client interview and review of financial documentation to assess investment experience, time horizon, income needs, objectives and risk tolerance, and it conducts periodic portfolio reviews with at least annual client contact. Investment implementation emphasizes diversified asset allocation across stocks, bonds, mutual funds and ETFs, options and alternative investments, with due diligence on independent managers and both model‑based and bespoke portfolio constructions.

A distinctive aspect of Sagent’s operations is its personnel’s involvement in other financial lines: certain employees are licensed to sell insurance and may earn commissions on insurance products, and some employees are licensed real‑estate agents or brokers who may represent clients in real‑estate transactions with disclosed compensation arrangements. The firm’s brochure also discloses a prior SEC settlement (2017) related to loans involving a related private investment fund, noting the firm did not admit or deny the allegations.
