About
FD Ball Investment Advisors is a single‑advisor independent RIA that provides financial planning consultations and discretionary portfolio management for individual clients, covering areas such as cash‑flow, retirement, tax and estate planning. The firm implements investment programs through third‑party platforms and money managers and acts as a liaison for clients who use those managers.
Portfolios are constructed and managed based on each client’s goals, time horizon and risk tolerance, with the advisor exercising discretionary trading authority and performing periodic reviews (at least quarterly) and annual meetings for third‑party managed accounts. The firm uses a mix of fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis and documents client objectives and any imposed investment restrictions in each file.
Noteworthy for an independent firm of this size, the managing member maintains a licensed insurance practice and the brochure discloses that commissions from insurance product sales represent a majority of the managing member’s revenue, a potential conflict the firm says it discloses and seeks to mitigate. The firm also regularly refers clients to third‑party money managers and shares in referral/management fees, and it operates with a very small client base and modest assets under management.

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.
