About

1919 Investment Counsel provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management and related wealth‑planning services to a mix of individual and institutional clients, including high‑net‑worth individuals, endowments, foundations, pension plans, and public or government‑related entities. Services described in the brochure include portfolio management, financial planning, estate and generational wealth planning, family office services, and trustee/administrative support.

The firm constructs customized portfolios with a core emphasis on liquid mid‑ and large‑cap equities and investment‑grade fixed income, complemented where appropriate by third‑party managers and alternative investments. Investment decisions are typically implemented under an investment policy statement and supported by proprietary and third‑party research (including AI/machine‑learning inputs), model portfolios, and periodic account reviews.

What distinguishes 1919 from many multi‑team peers are its organizational and product linkages: it is a wholly‑owned subsidiary of Stifel Financial Corp. and discloses ongoing operational relationships with Stifel affiliates (including trust, bank and broker‑dealer entities) that support custodial, referral, sub‑advisory, and middle/back‑office arrangements. The firm also acts as investment manager to SEC‑registered mutual funds and offers municipal‑focused fixed‑income strategies while serving state and municipal clients and investment companies — a combination of roles that is less common among comparable multi‑team advisory firms.

Not sure where to start?

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.

Find your advisor

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
