About
Charter Oak Asset Management is a small, state‑registered investment adviser that serves individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, retirement plans, trusts, corporations and non‑profit organizations, generally subject to a $250,000 relationship minimum. The firm provides discretionary portfolio management through its proprietary Managed Account Programs (MAPs), along with purchase advisory services for individual fixed‑income securities and hourly consulting, and also offers life, accident and health insurance products through a licensed producer.
The firm’s MAPs use a strategic asset allocation framework across equity and fixed‑income fund portfolios and emphasize active management, with positions adjusted based on charting, economic and technical analysis. Charter Oak reports program results quarterly, sending clients performance comparisons versus the S&P 500 and a three‑year average beta for each MAP, and invests client assets primarily in mutual funds, ETFs and bank CDs held at major custodians.
Noteworthy for a firm of its size, Charter Oak publicly reports MAP performance and provides routine benchmarked performance letters to clients—an uncommon disclosure among peers. It also operates an in‑house licensed insurance producer and may receive insurance commissions and soft‑dollar research credits, which the brochure discloses as potential sources of additional compensation.

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
