About
Courier Capital, LLC provides investment advisory services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), banking institutions, charitable endowments, and pension plans. Services described in the brochure include discretionary investment management (model portfolios and separately managed accounts), financial planning, retirement plan advisory and consulting, selection and oversight of third‑party managers, wrap‑fee program management, and access to alternative and private placement investments.
The firm generally tailors portfolios using an asset‑allocation approach based on a client profile and Investment Committee oversight, and it typically manages client assets on a discretionary basis while permitting reasonable client‑imposed restrictions. Courier emphasizes a structured due‑diligence and monitoring process for third‑party managers and fund selections and may include mutual funds, ETFs (including vehicles that use leverage or hedging), individual securities, and alternative investments in client portfolios.
Courier is wholly owned by Financial Institutions, Inc. and is affiliated with Five Star Bank and other related affiliates, an ownership and referral arrangement that the brochure identifies as a source of potential conflicts of interest and cross‑referrals. The firm also notes it does not offer proprietary mutual funds for retirement plan recommendations, discloses custodial and platform relationships (including Schwab/iRebal arrangements) that provide operational and research benefits, and serves ERISA plans in fiduciary roles, including as a 3(38) investment manager.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
