About
AJF Capital Management provides investment advisory services to individuals (including high net worth clients), pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and corporations. Services include discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, wealth management, retirement-plan management, and financial planning covering retirement, estate, tax, and risk-management matters.
The firm builds core portfolios using an asset-allocation framework grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory and supplements that core with a satellite of equities, ETFs, and closed-end funds; its Sustainable Asset Management program applies ESG screens from sources such as GS Sustain, Morningstar, and Bloomberg. AJF also offers a more actively managed AJF Alpha Portfolio focused on concentrated, high-conviction positions with frequent trading and technical-analysis-driven rebalancing, and provides several advisor-directed strategies through the WealthPort Wrap program.
AJF is notable among peers for sponsoring and participating in a wrap-fee program and for personnel who also act as registered representatives of a broker-dealer, arrangements that can involve commissions and commission-based product sales in addition to advisory fees. The firm discloses these brokerage relationships and a seven-year forgivable loan from a non‑affiliated broker-dealer as potential conflicts of interest and describes policies intended to address them.

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.
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
