Overview

Mack Investment Securities, Inc. operates as an independent broker-dealer and insurance broker that also functions as a capital allocator for both individual and institutional clients. The firm combines fee-based advisory services (percentage of AUM, hourly and fixed fees) with commission business, and its advisory work includes financial planning, portfolio management for individuals and small businesses, selection of outside advisers, publication of investment periodicals, and market timing services. Mack Investment Securities is not positioned as an active ESG investor and reports an equities-first preference in its deployed strategies. Investment activity tilts toward liquid, exchange-traded exposure for core allocations while preserving flexibility to use third-party managers and packaged products where appropriate. The firm’s footprint suggests a hybrid approach: discretionary management for clients who want ongoing portfolio oversight and a non-discretionary channel for clients who retain final trading authority. As an independent broker-dealer with an individual ownership structure, Mack emphasizes a mix of advisory relationships and traditional brokerage distribution.
