About
Harris & Associates provides investment advisory and consulting services to individuals and families as well as to trusts, estates, charitable organizations and corporate clients. Services include discretionary portfolio management, financial planning and executive benefit plan design, enrollment and administration for both qualified and non-qualified plans.
The firm combines Modern Portfolio Theory with active portfolio management, employing diversified allocations to mutual funds, ETFs, separate accounts, alternative investments and risk‑transfer products to reduce unsystematic risk. Portfolios are reviewed through an Enhanced Tactical Management (ETM) process that generates weekly trailing performance reports to support tactical adjustments, with formal reviews at least annually.
Compared with many solo independent advisers, the firm’s client mix and service set are broader than typical: it explicitly serves charitable and corporate clients and provides portfolio management for institutional arrangements as well as executive benefits consulting (deferred compensation, SERPs, plan administration). The brochure also discloses that firm personnel hold broker‑dealer and insurance licenses and may recommend commissionable products, with policies in place to manage those potential conflicts under the firm’s fiduciary obligations.

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
