Overview

Mccarthy Asset Management, Inc. is an independent registered investment adviser that serves individual and family clients, operating as a fee-driven practice that charges a percentage of assets under management and occasional hourly fees for planning work. The firm’s practice emphasizes managed portfolios built primarily from public funds and mutual funds, with portfolio construction weighted toward dividend-oriented and broad-market ETF strategies. Its advisory services center on financial planning and discretionary portfolio management for individuals and small businesses, delivered through a relatively concentrated client base. The firm has been SEC-registered since 2002 and is owned by an individual principal. Mccarthy Asset Management has also been recognized in the industry — it was named among Top RIA Firms by FA Magazine in 2020 — which reflects visibility beyond its regional footprint.
