About Us
Billeaud Capital Management, Inc. (BCM) was established in 1986 by Joseph “Bo” Billeaud. Subsequently, Bo was joined by Hille Domingue and George Holland. Personal profiles are below.
Simply put, we manage money on a discretionary basis for a fee according to a unique and proprietary approach which is greatly detailed on this website. This is what we do. What we don’t do is sell anything. We are experienced, focused, disciplined, and accessible to our clients.
Client accounts are established at Charles Schwab & Company. We never take possession of any client money. Schwab sends monthly statements and trade confirmations directly to clients, and online access to account information is readily available.
In turn, we deliver quarterly reports to clients. These reports include a client letter, performance reports, and a billing statement. Our management fees start at an annual rate of 1% and decline for larger accounts. Fees are charged in arrears, are prorated, and there are no upfront or backend charges.
We believe we have something of real value to offer to risk-adverse, long-term investors. If you have $250,000 or more of investment assets, we invite you to contact us for more information.
