GOLD COAST CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, LLC
Personalized Wealth Management Serving Chicago

Who We Serve

Your investment strategy should reflect where you are in life, what you have built and what you want your wealth to accomplish next.

Gold Coast Capital Management works with individuals and families throughout Chicago who value disciplined investment management, transparent fees and a direct relationship with the professional managing their portfolio.

01Built Around You

Wealth Management Built Around Your Circumstances

No two investors arrive with exactly the same financial picture.

Some are preparing to retire after decades of saving.

Others have recently inherited significant assets, sold a business or reached a point in their career where managing investments has become increasingly important.

Some already work with a financial advisor but want an independent second opinion.

Gold Coast Capital Management provides personalized investment planning and portfolio management based on each client's goals, time horizon, risk tolerance, existing assets and broader financial circumstances.

Investment Guidance for Different Financial Journeys

01
Preparing Your Portfolio for the Years Ahead

Retirees & Pre-Retirees

The transition into retirement changes what you need from your investments.

As retirement approaches, questions around portfolio risk, future withdrawals, investment income, taxes, Social Security and long-term growth become increasingly important.

Gold Coast Capital Management works with retirees and pre-retirees who want to understand whether their current investment strategy is prepared for that transition.

We help clients evaluate their portfolio within the context of the retirement they are planning for and manage investments with both near-term needs and long-term objectives in mind.

02
Turn an Inheritance Into a Thoughtful Long-Term Strategy

Individuals & Families Managing Inherited Wealth

Receiving an inheritance can substantially change your financial circumstances.

You may suddenly be responsible for cash, investment accounts, individual securities or other assets that were not part of your previous financial plan.

Rather than making immediate investment decisions, it can help to first understand what you have inherited and how those assets fit within your broader financial picture.

Gold Coast Capital Management helps individuals and families evaluate inherited investment assets, understand existing portfolios and develop an investment strategy based on their own goals, risk tolerance and time horizon.

03
When Business Wealth Becomes Investment Wealth

Business Owners & Major Liquidity Events

For many business owners, a significant portion of personal wealth may remain concentrated in the company they built.

Selling a business, receiving a major distribution or experiencing another liquidity event can fundamentally change that picture.

Suddenly, capital that was previously tied to a private business may need to be invested, diversified and managed for an entirely different purpose.

Gold Coast Capital Management works with business owners and individuals navigating significant liquidity events to develop an investment strategy for the next stage of their financial lives.

04
Bring Greater Structure to the Wealth You Have Built

Professionals & Executives

As careers progress, financial lives often become more complex.

Investment accounts accumulate.

Compensation increases.

Former employer retirement plans remain in different places.

Company stock or other concentrated investments may represent a growing portion of overall wealth.

And finding the time to manage everything thoughtfully becomes increasingly difficult.

Gold Coast Capital Management works with professionals and executives who want a disciplined investment strategy and direct access to an experienced investment advisor.

We help bring individual accounts and investment decisions together within a broader portfolio strategy aligned with long-term objectives.

05
Investment Management for Demanding Careers

Physicians & Healthcare Professionals

Physicians and other healthcare professionals may spend years developing their careers while simultaneously building substantial financial assets.

The demands of practicing medicine can leave limited time for managing an increasingly complex investment portfolio.

Gold Coast Capital Management works with physicians and healthcare professionals who want an independent advisor to help evaluate, organize and manage their investments around their goals and long-term financial priorities.

Our focus is investment planning and portfolio management, with direct access to Dragan Mark Filipovic, CFA® throughout the advisory relationship.

06
A Disciplined Strategy for Long-Term Investors

Individuals & Families Building and Preserving Wealth

You do not need to be experiencing a major financial event to benefit from professional portfolio management.

Gold Coast Capital Management also works with individuals and families who have accumulated investments over time and simply want a clearer, more disciplined strategy.

You may have:

Investment accounts at several institutions
Retirement accounts from previous employers
A taxable investment portfolio
Concentrated stock positions
Investments accumulated without a coordinated strategy
A portfolio that has not been meaningfully reviewed in years

We help evaluate how those assets fit together and develop an investment strategy around your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon.

07
You Don't Have to Change Advisors to Ask Another One

Investors Looking for a Second Opinion

Sometimes the question is not whether you need financial advice.

It is whether the advice you are currently receiving is still right for you.

You may be wondering:

Is my portfolio taking too much risk?
Am I properly diversified?
What am I actually paying?
Does my portfolio still reflect my goals?
Am I receiving enough attention from my current advisor?
Would another investment professional approach this differently?

Gold Coast Capital Management offers complimentary portfolio reviews for Chicago investors who want an independent perspective on their existing strategy.

There is no obligation to change financial advisors or transfer assets simply because you request a second opinion.

03The Relationship

A Direct Wealth Management Relationship

The circumstances that bring clients to Gold Coast Capital Management may differ. The relationship they receive does not.

01

Work Directly With Dragan

Every client works directly with Dragan Mark Filipovic, CFA®, rather than being handed off to a junior advisor or rotating service team.

02

Independent Fiduciary Advice

Gold Coast Capital Management provides investment advice within a fiduciary relationship without proprietary investment products or sales quotas.

03

Transparent 0.50% Advisory Fee

Clients pay a straightforward 0.50% annual advisory fee for ongoing advisory services.

04

Charles Schwab Custody

Client assets remain independently custodied at Charles Schwab and held in the client's name.
