About
Canby Financial Advisors is an SEC‑registered investment adviser managing approximately $729.4 million in client assets through a five‑advisor team. The firm provides personalized financial planning and both discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management to a mix of clients that includes retirement plans, corporations, trusts, estates, private foundations, charitable organizations and, in certain cases, individual accounts.
Canby’s investment process is built on customized financial planning and a generally long‑term approach, typically using mutual funds and ETFs as primary portfolio building blocks while also employing individual equities, fixed income, REITs and alternatives when appropriate. The firm may allocate assets to unaffiliated External Managers, monitors accounts on an ongoing basis, and relies on institutional custodial relationships (notably Fidelity) for trade execution, reporting and access to research and technology.
Distinctive elements in the brochure include a relatively large asset base concentrated among a small advisory team and an operational emphasis on retirement‑plan and institutional work alongside other client types. The firm also discloses specific operational arrangements that stand out from many peers — a custodial relationship that provides technology and time‑limited financial support, an explicit conflict disclosure around margin use, and a policy of not voting client proxies (clients retain voting responsibility).
