About
Alan B. Lancz & Associates, Inc. is an SEC‑registered investment adviser that manages discretionary portfolios for individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), retirement plans, family offices, foundations and pooled investment vehicles, overseeing roughly $175 million in client assets. The firm provides portfolio/wealth management, an asset‑allocation program called SOUND Investing, retirement‑plan consulting, financial planning and corporate consulting on a case‑by‑case basis.
The firm’s investment approach centers on fundamental analysis and individualized portfolio construction across a broad toolkit that can include equities, fixed income, structured products, derivatives and alternative investments, with tax and risk management emphasized. Portfolios are managed to client objectives and may incorporate client‑specified restrictions — including tailored ethical or faith‑based policies (for example, alignment with U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops guidelines) — and the firm offers discretionary supervisory services along with education and participant outreach for retirement plans.
What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its role as sponsor/manager and private fund adviser to pooled vehicles that invest primarily in energy‑sector partnerships (notably drilling funds that utilize intangible drilling costs and well‑production distributions), a strategy that entails higher illiquidity and concentration risk than typical advisory firms handle. The firm also has affiliated business activities — including management of private real estate LLCs, a proprietary research entity and an early‑stage AI platform — relationships the firm discloses and manages through internal policies and supervisory procedures.

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
