About

Giverny Capital Advisors provides discretionary investment management on a fee-only basis to individuals, trusts and other institutional entities, managing relatively concentrated equity portfolios (typically 20–30 stocks) rather than broad, fully diversified asset mixes. The firm’s services are limited to portfolio management and do not include financial planning or insurance and estate-planning services.

The firm follows a value-investing process grounded in fundamental research and implements a long-term “Master Portfolio” model that is customized across individual client accounts, with periodic rebalancing and quarterly reviews. Clients receive regular performance reporting, including performance-history reports that are presented relative to the S&P 500 benchmark.

Giverny Capital Advisors is notable among peers for operating at scale with a small advisory team while disclosing affiliations with other SEC-registered Giverny entities and using a model portfolio developed by an affiliated Montreal-based adviser; the ADV describes policies and controls intended to address trading and information-sharing conflicts across those related firms. The brochure also emphasizes the firm’s provision of performance and predecessor-performance information and the accompanying disclosure and allocation procedures that govern simultaneous or overlapping trading with affiliated advisers.

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.

Find your advisor

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
