The Moorings Group designs and actively manages custom investment portfolios, specializing primarily in municipal bonds and other fixed income securities alongside a limited number of balanced portfolios. Founded in 2003, the firm operates with a core belief in the value of active management for fixed income investments. The Moorings Group evaluates each client's financial history, goals, income needs, and tax considerations to build tailored portfolios. The firm manages assets on a discretionary basis, meaning professionals make trades on the client's behalf without needing prior approval for each individual transaction. In addition to direct client accounts, the firm also serves as a sub-advisor for other wealth management firms. The Moorings Group does not sell financial products or earn commissions, relying instead on a fee structure based on a percentage of the assets under management.
