About
Downey Capital Management provides discretionary investment management to individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities, with a client mix concentrated among high‑net‑worth households and a general expectation of a minimum level of investable assets. Services focus on tailored portfolio management across equities, fixed income, exchange‑traded funds and, for certain clients, privately placed securities.
The firm typically constructs accounts as baskets of securities or ETF selections and uses a combination of fundamental and technical analysis to align portfolios with client objectives and risk tolerances. It generally exercises full investment discretion, aggregates trades across similar accounts, and employs cash‑management strategies while occasionally using broker‑provided research supported by commission arrangements.
Noteworthy features disclosed in the brochure include an affiliation between a firm director and a law practice, identified as a related‑party relationship, and a 2012 state consent order addressing late registration of adviser representatives that the firm reports as a disclosure event. Compared with larger peers, Downey Capital operates with a relatively small client base and makes selective use of private placements, factors that can affect liquidity, review frequency and account administration.

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
