About

Chesapeake Asset Management provides wealth management and investment advisory services to individuals, families, family offices, endowments, foundations and other registered investment advisers. The firm operates through a Private Wealth Division that offers discretionary portfolio management and comprehensive financial planning for individual clients, and an Alternatives Advisory Group that delivers non-discretionary advisory and operational support for alternative investments.

The firm’s public-markets investment process emphasizes fundamental analysis to identify undervalued companies and construct customized or model portfolios, and it implements strategies that can include long and short positions, thematic equity baskets, options and margin for clients who permit them. For alternatives, Chesapeake focuses on sourcing, manager due diligence, operational support and monitoring for private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, hedge funds and digital assets, typically on a non-discretionary consultative basis.

What distinguishes Chesapeake from many peers is that it acts as an investment manager and general partner to a privately offered pooled vehicle (Concinnity Partners), facilitates feeder funds and SPVs, and in limited cases participates in carried-interest arrangements while waiving duplicative asset-based fees. The firm also manages a material portion of assets on a non-discretionary basis and, in limited circumstances, accepts performance-based compensation—features that are relatively uncommon among similarly sized supported advisers.

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
