About
EquityCompass provides model portfolios, discretionary management and investment commentary primarily to financial intermediaries, sponsor firms and institutional clients, while also serving individual and trust accounts. As of December 31, 2025, the firm reported approximately $227.7 million in assets under management and about $5.524 billion in assets under advisement for advisory-only model delivery.
The firm’s investment process combines fundamental analysis with quantitative, rules-based models to construct focused, generally equal-weighted strategies that span equity, fixed income, tax-advantaged municipal allocations, and tactical equity risk management. EquityCompass delivers both non-discretionary model portfolios to sponsoring firms and discretionary management within wrap fee programs, and it provides quarterly performance reviews and periodic market overviews to sponsoring firms for use with their clients.
EquityCompass is a wholly owned subsidiary of Stifel Financial Corp. and operates alongside affiliated broker-dealers, trust companies, banks and other registered advisers, which it discloses as a material element of its business relationships and operations. The firm’s role as a model provider to affiliated and non‑affiliated sponsors, participation in wrap programs (with sponsor custodian oversight and internal control reporting), dual-contract arrangements where it can deduct fees, and a multi-office presence despite modest direct AUM together distinguish its operating model from many similarly sized advisory teams.

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
