A complete list of active advisors currently associated with ADES Investment Counsel, Inc.

Warmer can help you find a great advisor at ADES Investment Counsel, Inc. or one who fits your needs even better.

Ades Investment Counsel primarily serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients, along with retirement‑plan participants, trusts, pension/profit‑sharing plans and business entities, offering ongoing portfolio management, financial planning and investment consulting. The firm also provides investment advice specifically for self‑directed employer‑sponsored retirement plans and short‑term consulting engagements for clients who do not qualify for or elect not to use its discretionary management service. The firm follows a long‑term, passive‑oriented investment approach grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory, using multi‑factor and mean‑variance analysis to construct diversified asset allocations and rebalancing portfolios as part of ongoing management. Portfolios are typically implemented with index‑type mutual funds and ETFs, with an emphasis on Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) funds and other low‑cost providers; because DFA funds are not broadly available to retail investors, AIC commonly recommends a specific national custodian to access those products and institutional services. What distinguishes Ades from many peers is its accounting firm background and professional mix: the advisory team includes CPAs who also hold CFA charters and has roots in a long‑standing public accounting practice, a combination that is uncommon among supported firms. The firm manages a compact client roster with $82,860,118 in discretionary assets under management (as of December 31, 2025) and routinely relies on DFA research and institutional custodial relationships that shape its implementation and operational practices.

Find your advisor

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
