Bates Wealth Management, LLC

Overview

Bates Wealth Management, LLC is an independent, individual‑owned registered investment adviser that focuses on financial planning and portfolio management for individuals and small businesses. The firm pairs advisory services with insurance brokerage capabilities, using a fee model that blends a percentage of assets under management with hourly charges. Investment activity shows a clear preference for liquid equity exposures: the majority of client assets are held in exchange‑traded equities and ETFs, and the firm emphasizes equity-based allocations as its primary portfolio sleeve. The adviser is not structured as a multi‑state or institutional pension consultant and does not present itself as an ESG‑focused allocator. Instead, its approach appears targeted to individual and family clients who want straightforward wealth management and access to alternative exposures through third‑party managers rather than in‑house private placements.
