SEPARATE ACCOUNTS: Management for Physicians

Separate Account Management offers medical professionals customized personal money management services.  In the typical separate account structure, a money manager invests the individual’s assets in stocks and bonds (as opposed to mutual funds providing exposure to specific asset classes) on a discretionary basis. 

For physicians and healthcare providers with significant investment assets (e.g., $100,000), a separately managed portfolio can be customized to reflect their tax situation, social investment guidelines, and cash flow needs.

An additional benefit of the separate account management structure is that a client’s portfolio may be positioned over time as opportunities arise, rather than forcing stocks into the portfolio without regard to current conditions.

Although separate account management generally offers a higher degree of customization than mutual funds, fees for separate account management are generally consistent with mutual funds fees, especially given that separate account managers may discount their fees for larger portfolios.

2025: National Dentist Day

By Staff Reporters

***

March 6th is National Dentist Day, a day to celebrate the men and women who keep our chompers chomping, our gnashers gnashing, and our whites pearly.

Dentists (DDS/DMD) are doctors who specialize in oral health. It’s their job to prevent, diagnose, and treat oral diseases, monitor the growth of our teeth and jaws, and perform surgical procedures on our teeth and mouths!

Dental health is integral to our overall health, so today we salute them not just for keeping our teeth looking good, but keeping our bodies in tip-top shape.

Endometriosis Awareness Week, which brings attention to the chronic disease that affects about 10% of reproductive-age patients with uteruses worldwide. There’s still no known cure, due in part to research being underfunded—in 2022, the NIH allocated just $16 million, or $2 per patient, to endometriosis research, according to a 2024 study.

US stocks rallied on Wednesday as President Trump provided a one-month auto tariff exemption on Mexico and Canada.

After sliding earlier in the session, the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite (^IXIC) led the gains, rising more than 1.4%. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) and the S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose roughly 1.1%.

Stocks lifted higher after the White House delayed by one month auto tariffs that could significantly impact US automakers Ford (F), GM (GM), and Stellantis (STLA). Shares of all three automakers were at least 5% higher.
