CFP®-certified, private / alternative investments financial advisors in Indiana
The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.
If you're considering private or alternative investments, you likely want to diversify beyond traditional stocks and bonds. A common pitfall is underestimating the unique risks and liquidity constraints these investments carry, which can disrupt your overall financial plan.
CFP® certification means these advisors have formal training in financial planning, helping you integrate alternative assets thoughtfully.
- Risk assessment focus. Confirm how they evaluate the specific risks of private investments, including illiquidity and valuation challenges.
- Portfolio integration. Ask how they balance alternative assets with your broader investment goals and cash flow needs.
- Fee transparency. Private investments often have complex fees; ensure the advisor clearly explains all costs involved.
- Regulatory knowledge. Verify their familiarity with state and federal rules affecting private deals, especially in Indiana's tax environment.
Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
