About

Cloud Capital Management serves individuals, families, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities, offering discretionary investment management alongside standalone financial consulting and due‑diligence services. The SEC‑registered, fiduciary adviser manages roughly $300 million for about 130 client relationships through a six‑advisor team and maintains a stated household minimum for AUM relationships.

The firm constructs and monitors portfolios using a broad set of securities and third‑party managers, applying quantitative and qualitative analysis, modern portfolio theory and model‑based trading to guide allocations, rebalancing and execution. Custody is typically maintained at major custodians and trading is often executed through investment models that can aggregate transactions; the brochure also notes the firm may recommend outside managers and sub‑advisors when appropriate.

Cloud Capital’s brochure highlights several activities that are less common among comparable team firms: it includes a section addressing performance‑based fee arrangements, and its Financial Consulting practice explicitly covers due diligence, structuring models and reporting templates for private placements, venture capital, private equity, hedge funds and reviews of outside managers—services consistent with acting as a fund sponsor/syndicator or advising pooled investment vehicles. The firm also reports certain custody arrangements tied to standing limited powers of attorney and discloses procedures for personal trading and conflicts, which may be relevant for clients considering private or pooled investments.

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
