About Us
MackHouse Capital is an independent registered investment
advisory firm located in Clarksville, Indiana. We are registered
in both the state of Indiana and the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
We specialize in providing investment and wealth management
services to individuals, families, and institutions. The principals
of the firm have over 35 years of investment management experience.
We are a fee only investment advisor. Therefore, the client pays
the fees, in arrears monthly, to us. We do not receive any
commissions or compensation from the recommendations,
buy or sell, of financial products. By doing so we eliminate any
conflict of interest and can remain completely objective in the
advice we provide our clients.
Our Mission
We provide our clients with wealth and investment management services that enhance their lifestyle, build upon their legacy, and allow them to pass those values on to future generations.
We understand that each client has many options when it comes to choosing a financial advisor. It is our belief that in making financial decisions it is helpful to have a disciplined and objective partner, one who delivers advice based solely on an intimate understanding of one’s needs and objectives.
We believe that MackHouse can be that partner, and our clients over the years agree.
Safekeeping/Custodian of assets
We currently work with US Bank and Charles Schwab & Co. to provide custodian services for our clients’ assets. While MackHouse Capital performs the investment management function on your portfolio, we do not hold any of your assets. This function is performed by Schwab & Co., a $6.6 trillion asset financial services company and U.S. Bank is the 6th largest commercial bank in the country with assets of $223 Billion. Both Schwab and US Bank are responsible for the settlement, safekeeping, and reporting of our customers’ marketable securities and cash.
As part of the reporting process, you will receive from Schwab and US Bank, on a monthly basis, statements which will detail any transaction during the month. In addition, you will receive year-end tax reporting information as well as having access to view your account online.
We at MackHouse will meet with you on a yearly basis to review your accounts, it’s performance and if you needs/objectives have changed.
