About

Aspiriant serves primarily high‑net‑worth individuals and families, professional fiduciaries, and select institutional and retirement plan clients, offering discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management alongside wealth planning, family office and specialty services. Its wealth services explicitly include accounting and banking support (such as bill payment and preparation of personal and business financial statements), tax and estate planning, and targeted consulting like divorce financial analysis and special‑needs financial planning.

The firm builds customized investment programs using asset allocation guided by internal Capital Market Expectations and a mix of implementation options — third‑party managers, ETFs, separate accounts, private investments, and mutual funds. Aspiriant also acts as investment adviser to the Aspiriant Affiliated Mutual Funds (including interval funds), offers access to recommended private investment offerings sourced and due‑diligenced by its Investment Strategy and Research team, and uses AI tools to assist in preparing client communications and analyses (with human review).

Distinctive features relative to peers include an affiliation with Strategic Planning Law Group, PC and an expanded set of family office capabilities (accounting/banking services and bill payment) that go beyond typical advisory offerings. The firm also sponsors and manages public mutual funds that invest in private assets and provides fee‑rebate mechanics for clients invested in those funds, and maintains a holding‑company ownership structure with substantial employee ownership as part of its succession planning.

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
