About
Compass Investments advises individual investors, high-net-worth individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, self‑employed persons, and other business entities, and notes clients that include military personnel, artists, business owners, and high‑tech professionals. The firm provides discretionary asset management as its primary service, may engage third‑party managers when appropriate, and reports $93,158,481 in assets under management across 418 accounts as of January 30, 2026.
Portfolios are tailored to each client’s objectives and risk tolerance using a mix of fundamental analysis, selective technical analysis, and both active and passive strategies. Advisors typically construct household-level allocations to optimize tax efficiency and account placement, seek to limit portfolio redundancy (including the use of SMAs), and may convert legacy mutual fund share classes to lower‑cost classes where suitable.
Compass operates from five offices, a structure that is less common among firms of its team size, and incorporates multi‑generational planning into its client work to facilitate family financial education and coordination. Other notable practices include occasional use of margin and short sales for clients with higher risk tolerance, subscription to a range of external investment newsletters, and an investment minimum that may be waived at an advisor’s discretion.

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
