Overview

M. Kraus & Company is an SEC-registered advisory corporation that has been operating since 1996 and is privately owned. The firm serves both individual and family clients as well as institutional accounts, with a stated advisory focus on portfolio management for individuals and small businesses. Its billing approach includes asset-based fees as well as hourly and fixed-fee arrangements rather than commission-driven models. The adviser does not identify as an active ESG investor, is not organized as a multi-state adviser, and does not serve as a pension consultant or a capital allocator. The firm’s public filings show a clear tilt toward equity-centric management, supplemented by third-party alternatives and insurance products where appropriate.
