About
Evidence Based Investing, LLC serves individual and high-net-worth clients as a solo registered adviser and provides advisory services primarily by selecting and referring clients to third‑party investment managers rather than managing client accounts directly. The firm documents its fiduciary obligations for retirement accounts and offers the same suite of services to all clients.
EBI conducts due diligence on third‑party advisers (including calls, meetings, and performance and strategy reviews) and may direct clients to Matson Money, Inc., which in turn requires use of a custodian such as Schwab Institutional. The firm does not take custody of assets, does not exercise investment discretion, and relies on custodial account statements and periodic reviews to monitor advised relationships.
Noteworthy for a firm in its category, EBI does not provide portfolio management for individual accounts and does not charge clients on a percentage‑of‑AUM basis, instead receiving compensation through fee‑sharing arrangements with third‑party advisers. The firm is very small (one adviser, three clients, and no assets under management) and discloses the principal’s status as a licensed insurance agent as a potential conflict of interest when insurance products are recommended.

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
