M1 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT


M1 Capital has been in business as an investment advisor registered with the SEC since 2011. M1 Capital is an LLC owned by partners Robert Stapleton Jr. and Paul Dunbar. We provide investment advice to our clients and manage their portfolios. Our strategies include general asset allocation and tactical asset allocation as well as a more actively traded total return program. Our investment strategies are geared toward specific client financial objectives, as explained in more detail below. We tailor our advisory services to the individual needs and goals of our clients. Clients may impose restrictions on the investments we make for their accounts. Such restrictions may include limitations on the types of investments or restrictions on investments in specific securities. We do not manage any assets on a non-discretionary basis. Tactical Asset Allocation (“TAA”) Our Tactical Asset Allocation program is a portfolio management strategy designed to develop solutions for clients with varied financial goals. Our process utilizes active asset allocation strategies that seek to balance a client’s risk/return parameters to meet that client’s specific needs. We diversify the fixed income portion of the portfolio by maturity and sector. For those clients who have an equity allocation, we create the core equity exposure of the portfolio, which may include a blend of any of the following ETFs based on growth and value, and international and emerging markets exposure. We expect the benefit of our approach to be reduced volatility of our clients’ portfolios. Each client completes a questionnaire that we use to determine the appropriate portfolio recommendations for that client. Our recommendations are based on the client’s tolerance for risk, expected rate of return, and investment objectives. For our TAA program, we use ETFs (exchange traded funds) to obtain the desired market exposure. We use a proprietary model to determine entry and exit points for each of the ETFs in a portfolio. Tactical Dividend Income (“TDI”) The Tactical Dividend Income program is a portfolio management strategy that seeks high dividend yield while attempting to reduce volatility by moving to cash when in our opinion market conditions warrant a more conservative position. The portfolio is comprised of diversified ETFs that have as their objective high dividend yield. Each ETF has an independent signal that is used to determine when to purchase or sell. The signals are received daily but the objective is to maintain positions during stable or upward trending moves for the specific ETF. This strategy is intended to be for those clients seeking high dividend yield while still desiring a sell discipline when warranted. Consideration of the client’s long term investment objectives, tolerance for risk, expectation for returns, and income needs are some of the factors used when recommending this strategy. General Investment Advice Our general investment advice service involves making asset allocation recommendations for you and selecting ETFs, individual stocks, bonds, CMOs and mutual funds to meet the recommended asset classes, based upon your individualized risk and return parameters and tolerance. We generally charge an annual fee of up to 150 basis points of the assets under management for this service, depending upon the size of your account and the complexity of the recommendations you request. Fees generally are charged quarterly in advance. Other Services Option Strategies We offer you the ability to add an option enhancement strategy to your portfolio. Our option overlay or enhancement strategy is a passively managed option investment strategy that generally uses a defined-risk option investing in an attempt to generate income against the core portfolio assets. The goal of adding this option overlay strategy is to seek to provide additional return to a tactical portfolio, concentrated stock position, or an existing portfolio. We attempt to deliver an “alpha” strategy that adds to the returns and dividend streams of the core portfolio by implementing a premium-selling option strategy based on time, probability of success, and implied volatility. It is important to understand that our option strategy is not intended to be an active trading strategy. The goal is to generate income from the premium erosion of the short option positions, not from speculation regarding future option prices. Premium-selling involves selling call or put options, or potentially both, depending on the client’s objectives, to generate income against the long assets held in the portfolio. In certain circumstances, options may also be used to initiate long ETF or equity positions in client accounts. We also offer portfolio protection option strategies. We charge an additional fee of up to 50 basis points for use of our option strategies. Consulting From time to time, we provide consulting services to clients that involve the evaluation of client portfolios or portions of client portfolios. Each consulting engagement is unique and we negotiate our fees for such services on an individualized basis. Arctaris Funds, L.P. To suitable clients we may offer investment in one of several Arctaris Funds. These funds are limited partnerships which invest in lower middle market US companies through security structures designed to provide investors current income, high liquidity, and above-market returns on investment. The funds address a capital void in the lower and middle markets by issuing subordinated debt with royalty-based enhancements or equity components such as warrants or restricted stock. The expected result is a diversified portfolio of income-generating securities in companies with sufficient cash flows to pay attractive returns to the funds. Investors must be able to prove accredited investor status to participate. Annuities We may, on occasion recommend or purchase for a client, a fixed rate or variable annuity. please register to get more info
