Strategic Wealth Management Solutions, Llc

Strategic Wealth Management Solutions, LLC provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management and offers hourly consulting to individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, non‑profits, corporations and ERISA accounts. The brochure notes particular attentiveness to trust clients and indicates portfolios may include both traditional and non‑traditional investments, including private placements such as exchange (swap) funds.

The firm tailors asset allocation to each client’s goals, monitors accounts on an ongoing basis, and rebalances as market or client circumstances change; it implements discretionary authority when granted and seeks client approval for non‑discretionary transactions. Fees are typically a percentage of assets under management, but SWMS also offers a performance‑based fee option for qualified clients (generally those with at least $1,000,000 under management or a certified $2,000,000 net worth), pairing a reduced fixed fee (generally 0.75%) with a performance component (generally 5% of positive net investment return) billed in arrears and not tied to any benchmark.

Compared with many independent peers, SWMS’s brochure discloses several less common features: the availability of performance‑based fees, acceptance of charitable and corporate clients and ERISA accounts, and the use of institutional‑style investments and private placement vehicles for appropriate clients. The firm also describes policies intended to address conflicts that may arise from performance fee arrangements and relies on third‑party custodial and institutional services (for example, Schwab Institutional) for trade execution and account reporting.
