Vantage Point Investments, Inc.

Vantage Point Investments is a small, supported registered investment adviser that provides portfolio management and advisory services primarily to individual clients, including both high-net-worth and non-high-net-worth households. The firm manages client accounts on a discretionary basis and, like most peers, commonly uses percentage-of-assets billing for managed accounts.

The firm’s advisory work is overseen by its principal who also serves as chief compliance officer and maintains written policies and supervisory procedures for staff. In addition to traditional equity and fixed income management, the firm can access commodity futures strategies through an affiliated commodity trading adviser, and it discloses that affiliated activities may generate separate commissions.

Notably, the firm has affiliated insurance and commodity businesses: an independent insurance agency that represents a meaningful portion of the principal’s time and an affiliated CFTC-registered commodity trading advisor, both of which are disclosed as potential conflicts of interest. The firm also states it does not assess its asset-management fee on accounts that hold commission-based investments, reflecting an operational detail that differentiates it from many peers.
