About
Hanson & Doremus Investment Management serves individuals, business entities, trusts, estates, pension and profit‑sharing plans, financial institutions, and charitable organizations by providing discretionary portfolio management, financial planning and related consulting. The firm operates on a fee‑only, percentage‑of‑AUM basis and—per its brochure—managed about $1.06 billion for roughly 584 clients with a team of ten advisors.
The firm builds customized portfolios using a mix of passive index allocations and active, bottom‑up security selection informed by fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis, and implements both long‑ and short‑term strategies. Its process includes ongoing monitoring, regular rebalancing, treatment of cash as an asset class, and limited use of options and margin when directed by clients, with quarterly client reviews and reporting.
Distinctive items called out in the brochure include periodic comprehensive reporting that aggregates outside assets via ByAllAccounts and MoneyGuidePro and the delivery of quarterly reports and consolidated client communications, which the firm highlights alongside its standard account statements. The brochure also discloses use of third‑party services for proxy voting and class‑action management (Broadridge with Glass Lewis guidelines and an 18% recovery retention), an explicit AI policy governing the firm’s use of AI tools, and a custodial relationship with Charles Schwab that includes institutional support services.

Advisors at this firm
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
