Flat-fee, factor investing / smart beta financial advisors in Wisconsin
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 looking to use factor investing or smart beta strategies, you likely want to improve your portfolio's risk and return by targeting specific investment factors like value, momentum, or quality. Without a clear understanding of how these factors interact and perform over time, you might end up with unintended risks or overlapping exposures.
- Factor selection clarity. Ask how they choose which factors to emphasize and why those fit your financial goals.
- Portfolio construction approach. Confirm whether they build diversified portfolios that balance factor exposures rather than chasing short-term trends.
- Fee transparency. Flat-fee advisors charge a set rate regardless of assets, so understand what services are included for your fee.
- Performance evaluation. Inquire how they measure success beyond simple returns, considering factor cycles and market conditions.
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
